the judges at the khmer rouge tribunal in cambodia are about to deliver a verdict on the genocide charges against the two leaders of khmer rouge, nuon chea and khieu samphan. they are accused of carrying out a policy of targeting and eliminating two ethnic minorities in the country. the bbc‘s jonathan head is in bangkok. what is the latest on this? were expecting a verdict later today. these charges are part of a trial that were split into, because this process has taken so long. we've had a number of senior khmer rouge leaders die of old age before the trials were concluded or they can be brought to trial. these are the only two senior leaders to be ever brought to trial. they were found guilty of crimes against humanity back in 201a. so they are already serving life sentences. these are charges of genocide. a lot of people refer to the mass killings

cambodia undid that and i was on kissinger's watch. so this is when the clock sped up and congress tries to pass one amendment after another with all of these efforts to limit the american involvement. so, to me it is a classic example of kissinger talking tough, appearing tough and then producing the opposite desired response. the invasion was even worse at this point because the congress said you can't do that but it involved the south vietnamese army and it was a disaster. they achieved the objective for a 15 minute and then the press was there so it just undercut everything that they were trying to do with this military escalation and all the time the north vietnamese troops were pouring into south vietnam. >> in the book that you just sort of shared, it is true we don't often think of them as having first and foremost a portfolio that is about domestic politics, and yet by your account the extent to which henry kissinger wanted to not think about domestic politics and think about u.s. strategies when other places argued that actua

any downside to invading cambodia, by the way? >> probably not very fond of you invading their country. >> we've been doing that secret bombing, right? secret bombings are bad, mostly because you can't keep them secret. but you know who knows? the guys on the ground getting bombed. so the cambodians are already a little irritated. here come in the americans and the south vietnamese. hey, what have the american people been told about your efforts in the region? what are you doing? >> lying to them again. >> yeah, that you said that you were de-escalating the war, that you started this vietnamization, but there you go into cambodia. the american campuses, which had been relatively quieter with this great silent majority, exploded. some of the biggest ones happen at kent state and also in a place called jackson state in mississippi. the governor of ohio calls out the national guard, confronts the students, and for a host of reasons, being thrown back and forth, all of a sudden the national guard turns around and fires. last summer, i

these included refugees from vietnam, laos, cambodia. i'll talk about the crisis that developed overseas, but i'll focus mostly on developments that took place here in the united states, how the general public viewed southeast asian refugees, how southeast asian refugees were admitted and resettled, and how southeast asian refugees themselves tell stories about their experience. i'll tease out why the history of southeast asian refugee resettlement matters and conclude with some discussion about how southeast asian americans today are drawing on their refugee history to intervene in contemporary public policy debates. any questions so far? so let's begin with some background about refugee resettlement in the united states during it the 20th century. during the 1940s, '50s, and '60s, most refugees came from europe with the exception of cuban refugees. most were white and either jewish or christian. and during this period, right after the second world war and during the cold war, a commitment to opposing communism really shaped how the uni

almost forty years since the fall of the camille rouge in cambodia two of its surviving leaders will soon find out if they've been found guilty of genocide you know today sions backed war crimes tribunal is due to hand down its judgment on new che and former head of the and former head of state to some person and sick a close look at who these two men are next to pol pot they were considered the commemorations most powerful leaders in one nine hundred seventy prosecutors say they were the architects of the ideology that resulted in the deaths of almost a quarter of the population up to two million cambodians. was known as brother number two or second in command to paul potts prosecutors saying help us to mind the systematic plan to punish opponents including forced labor and starvation shea denies ordering become a ruse to commit genocide but he has said that he must take responsibility for the damage caused by the regime that he led and this remorseful for the crimes committed some person was president from cambodia for one hundred sixty nine hundred seventy nine then he represented

why do we go into cambodia? >> the first, you technically take care the supply lines, but you are showing the world and north vietnam that you are able to go there and you can go there. >> there is a new sheriff in town, and there is no telling what the guy will do and he is changing the rules on the ground. maybe you are not going to get the sanctuary, and i will hit you militarily because you know the north is rebuilding as rapidly as they can. so i am going to disrupt her effort to be able to launch a major campaign as i am trying to get out of vietnam. any downside to invading cambodia? secret bombings are bad mostly because you cannot keep them secret. who knows that the bombing is not secret? the guys on the ground getting bombed. the cambodians are little irritated and here come the americans and the south vietnamese and what of the american people been told about your efforts in the region? what are you doing? that you said you was de- escalating the war and you, you go into cambodia. the american campus

china is lending a lot of money to cambodia and laos. it is clearly buying friendship from those two countries. and they provide a kind of veto. asean operates on a consensus basis. so if you are worried about south china sea, for example, you can count on laos and cambodia sticking with china and preventing asean from doing anything which china might find objectionable. >> we are witnessing a rapidly expanding presence of china in the indo ocean region, and we understand that china has a desire to emerge as a major maritime power. we don't quarrel with that, but what is happening has implications for us. >> i think that when you have a rising power like china, countries which are close neighbors, like india, or countries that were predominately economic powers, like the united states, have to think about their position. they might get a bit uneasy because of the strength of china and the way in which china wants to, quite understandably in -- and rightly, link up with the rest of the world. stephen: and the rest of the world means much
