Representatives from Denmark, Greece, the Netherlands, Oman, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates signed the instrument of accession to the TAC in the presence of ASEAN foreign ministers on Wednesday on the sidelines of the 55th ASEAN Foreign Ministers' Meeting (AMM-55) in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Prak Sokhonn, who also chaired the AMM-55, said its large number of members shows how important the TAC is in its fundamental objectives and principles of promoting friendly multilateral cooperation and peaceful co-existence.   

The TAC was signed in 1976 by ASEAN members to establish a set of guidelines for relations within the region and promote enduring peace, amity, and cooperation based on mutual respect, the principle of non-interference, and peaceful settlement of disputes.
