US considers sanctions against key Cambodians linked to online scams and human trafficking amid strained relations.

The U.S. is considering sanctions against key Cambodians linked to online scams and human trafficking, amid strained relations exacerbated by Cambodia's growing ties with China. The U.S. State Department has accused officials of complicity in trafficking operations. This potential move follows the UK's recent sanctions on multiple individuals and entities involved in similar activities across Cambodia, Myanmar, and Laos.
