Hun Manet Calls for Resolution in Thailand-Cambodia Border Conflict
Cambodia's Prime Minister Hun Manet addresses the unresolved Thailand-Cambodia border conflict and calls for cooperation in demarcation efforts. Despite a peace accord brokered by Donald Trump, tensions persist. Hun Manet seeks to strengthen ties with both the U.S. and China while tackling cyber scams in Cambodia.
In an exclusive interview with Reuters, Prime Minister Hun Manet of Cambodia urged Thailand to engage in joint efforts to resolve the ongoing border dispute, despite a peace accord initiated by former U.S. President Donald Trump. Manet emphasized the need for a joint boundary commission to verify territory.
During his visit to Washington for Trump's Board of Peace meeting, Hun Manet expressed hopes for the body to aid in de-escalating tensions. While Thailand claims troop presence is part of de-escalation, Cambodia views it as a sovereignty violation, highlighting the continued fragility along the 508-mile border.
Beyond border issues, Hun Manet seeks balanced diplomatic ties with China and the U.S. and vows to tackle cyber scams within Cambodia, acknowledging ongoing international scrutiny of human rights and press freedom. Manet asserts his commitment to security and education as key aspects of democracy.
