Trump calls Phumtham, Hun Manet , no trade deals without ceasefire

Sunday, July 27


The president added that the United States is presently engaged in trade negotiations with both Thailand and Cambodia but made it clear to both governments that the US would not proceed with any agreements while the two countries remain at war.

“I am trying to simplify a complex situation,” Trump wrote. “Many people are being killed in this war. It very much reminds me of the conflict between Pakistan and India, which was brought to a successful halt.”

Following his conversation with Cambodia’s prime minister, Trump said he would reach out again after consulting with the Thai side to discuss terms for a ceasefire and peaceful resolution. In a subsequent post, he confirmed that he had spoken with Acting Prime Minister Phumtham and described the exchange as “a very good call.”

According to Trump, both Thailand and Cambodia expressed a desire for peace and an immediate cessation of violence. He pledged to relay this mutual intention to Hun Manet once more.
