Cambodia is betting on more financial support from China, including for infrastructure, as President Xi Jinping visits the country on Thursday at the end of a three-nation trip in Southeast Asia, a Cambodian government spokesman said.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping has broken his silence on the deepening trade war with the United States, saying there will be "no winners." He warned President Donald Trump that China is "not afraid"—and shortly after his statement, Beijing announced reciprocal tariffs of 125% on all U.S. imports.
