Cambodia–Laos relations are foreign relations between Cambodia and Laos established in 1956. Cambodia has an embassy in Vientiane.[1] and Laos has an embassy in Phnom Penh.[2] Both countries are full members of the ASEAN. Both Cambodia and Laos have ruling parties, Laos has the Marxist-Leninist ideology of Lao People's Revolutionary Party while Cambodia has the Khmer nationalism as the Cambodian People's Party which is very similar to Marxist-Leninist faction, but has Monarchism and Cambodian nationalism to become part of the CPP's political system.
There are "shades of irredentism" along the border;[3] as a result the Cambodia–Laos border was not fully demarcated as of 2019.[4]
In 2024, the government of Lao PDR gifted two elephants to Cambodia. It was a gift from Laotian President Thongloun Sisoulith to King Norodom Sihamoni. They are considered meaningful presents from Lao to Cambodia.[5]
