His Cambodian People's Party had shared power with Ranarridh's royal ist party in an uneasy coalition government since 1993. Washington, which has not accepted Hun Sen's takeover, launched its own diplomatic effort, sending envoy Stephen Solarz to meet Hun Sen. Solarz, a former Democratic congressman from New York, was flying to Asia this weekend to rally support for the U.S. position. He will report to Secretary of State Madeleine elec- tions could be held. Hun Sen's refusal to accept n the plan by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, or ASEAN, brought the initiative to a halt. "We think that at present the royal government does not need ASEAN to take part in helping solve the issue," said Hun Sen spokesman Svay Sitha. Hun Sen's exiled rival, Prince Norodom Ranarridh, reacted by warning that a new civil war could engulf the country, but he stopped short of a call to arms. "I am really afraid that we are stepping into a new civil war that will be terrible in terms of loss of human life and in terms of destruction," Ranarridh told reporters in Bangkok, Thailand. The weight of the warning was uncertain. After meeting with ASEAN ministers Friday, Ranarridh agreed to call off his armed resistance. The prince's troops so far have been routed on the battlefield by Hun Sen's larger, stronger army. He said 20,000 soldiers remained in Cambodia ready to fight Hun Sen, but indicated they lacked ammunition. Hun Sen deposed seven-natio- violen- Albright at ASEAN's meeting in Malaysia next Saturday. Cambodia, which has been ce-ravaged poor after left desperately decades of civil war, was to join the powerful trade bloc Wednesday, but ASEAN postponed its entry last week in response to Hun Sen's coup. Smiling and relaxed, Hun the Sen asked the delegation of ministers Thailand, foreign the Philippines and Indonesia to reconsider that decision, saying it had been made in haste, his spokesman said. He also reiterated his claims that Ranarridh negotiated with the remnants of the Khmer Rouge guerrilla group to launch a terror campaign against Hun Sen.
