Manekseka Sangkum:
Nonsense! If "talking" alone had had any positive impact on political impasse, the country would not still be in its current crisis. There's a reason why the ruling CPP keeps resorting to brute force and violence whenever it senses its grip on political power is being under threat. There's also a reason why, from time to time, a modicum and insincere gesture of compromise and 'dialogue' is extended to opposition groups.
The Opposition CNRP - now dissolved - may not be itself completely devoid of flaws, but the real onus has always been on the ruling CPP to place national interests above personalities and narrow political self-preservation.
Stop reporting and relaying muddled "analysis" and flawed views on the situation. There needn't be a scenario where Cambodian people are pitted against themselves in this struggle for political and civil freedoms - not to say national independence and sovereignty. 'Civil disobedience' and mounting international pressure are among measures that can combine to force even the most tyrannical of despots to step down, or at any rate, accept fundamental reforms as the way forward. See Myanmar and other countries previously experiencing decades of junta repression or military rule.
Yet if "civil war" and bloodshed will have been the only means to saving the nation from piece-meal disintegration, then that may have to be that...
