Thailand, Cambodia Agree to De-Escalate Border Standoff
The governments of Thailand and Cambodia agreed to de-escalate a border standoff by adjusting military forces in the conflict zone, following a skirmish in late May. The decision was announced by Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra in a post on X late Sunday.
The two nations will engage through the Joint Border Mechanism, with a meeting scheduled for June 14 in Cambodia's capital Phnom Penh. They also plan to hold multi-level discussions aimed at restoring normalcy in bilateral relations as soon as possible, Paetongtarn said.
