Cambodia's Prime Minister has accepted an apology from the United Nations World Food Programme for an incorrect statement about the country's food security.
Prime Minister Hun Sen has attacked the WFP for wrongly claiming Cambodia was vulnerable to food shortages.
The UN has now apologised for the error, saying the statement was based on outdated information.
The apology comes just days after the controversial jailing of a WFP worker.
Cambodian warehouse employee Seng Kunnaka has been sentenced to six months in prison for printing and distributing anti-government material in a trial criticised by rights groups.
A government spokesman says the two issues are unrelated.
