Thailand downgrades ties with Cambodia, recalls ambassador, expels Cambodian envoy

Thailand has decided to downgrade diplomatic relations with Cambodia by recalling its ambassador from Phnom Penh and expelling the Cambodian ambassador in Bangkok, acting Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai announced today.



He said the decision was made in response to a landmine explosion this evening in a border area in Ubon Ratchathani, which injured a Thai soldier.



Phumtham added that the Thai government will also send a formal protest letter to Cambodia over the incident and will review its diplomatic ties with the country.

Commander of the Second Army Region, Lt Gen Boonsin Phadklang, said the injured soldier was among five troops patrolling the Chong An Ma area in Nam Yuen district when he stepped on a landmine, which was believed to have been newly planted.

The explosion caused Sergeant Major Pichit Boonchula to lose his right leg, while the other four soldiers sustained minor injuries.

In response to the incident, Lt Gen Boonsin ordered the closure of four border checkpoints, as well as the Ta Muen Thom and Ta Kwai temples, starting Thursday.



“The 2nd Army Region will escalate its response to Cambodia starting on July 24. Four border checkpoints — Chong An Ma, Chong Sa-ngam, Chong Chom, and Chong Sai Taku — will be closed, along with the Ta Muen Thom and Ta Kwai temples,” he said.

Last week, three Thai soldiers patrolling a border area in Chong Bok, Ubon Ratchathani, were also injured by a landmine explosion.

Thai authorities hold Cambodia responsible for planting the Russian-made landmines in Thai territory, which they said is a violation of the Ottawa Convention — an international agreement that prohibits the use, stockpiling, production, and transfer of anti-personnel landmines.

Have we heard anything from China on this or plans to mediate? Both countries are extremely important for China's FP in ASEAN as well as markets for businesses.

Now I have to ask:

The article says its 420 for weed stuff, but how do we know its not 420 for Nazi stuff?

Of course it's not, that's ridiculous
The burger being $14.88 is for Nazi stuff!

(lol, not the real price)

Haven't heard anything. More or less certain that back channel talks are happening though

With such tensions it's better for third parties to stay out of the public eye so that they don't attract public criticism from either side domestic' population

Hey uh, why are some of us arguing about about whether Putin is a Jew again?

it gives you alot of info.
few years back Putin invited Jews to return to Russia. He actually meant was that Russian government is now capable in dealing with them.

Putin mentioned that he discussed Jews in Russian empire with Tucker Carlson when camera was turned off. and than Tucker went on tour of Gulf countries after that interview and now you can observe Tucker recent statements including his interview with Qatari PM. Putin set the trend.
They are two sides of Putin. One side he is inviting them and on another side make things unpleasant. if it was upto Putin he will fight this Ukraine conflict with African/ North Koreans with Asian weopons.

A thread explains the July 26th "recall vote" in Taiwan - in essence, a naked attempt by the DPP to grab the majority in the Legislative Yuan by impeaching previously democratically elected KMT lawmakers:
