Description
Lieutenant General (Lt Gen) John M Sanderson (right), Force Commander of the Military Contingent of the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC) speaks at a meeting of the Mixed Military Working Group (MMWG), a high-level forum for all four Cambodian military factions and the UN's military contingent representatives. An unidentified French UNTAC military contingent representative and a civilian sit next to Lt Gen Sanderson, while a large grouping of UNTAC military representatives sit behind them. First meeting on 28 December 1991, usually at the old colonial French Protector's Residence in Phnom Penh, the MMWG had been formed by the United Nations Advance Mission in Cambodia (UNAMIC) and continued under UNTAC.
