“Anutin” returned to Thailand, said that the atmosphere after signing the Thai-Cambodian declaration was good, emphasized that the relationship has not yet begun because the conditions must be met first, and the army will continue to coordinate. He believes that Cambodia does not dare to renege. It was revealed that “Trump” agreed to visit Thailand
On October 26, 2025, at 3:00 PM (local time in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, corresponding to 2:00 PM in Thailand) Mr. Anutin Charnvirakul, Prime Minister and Minister of Interior revealed after signing the statement of the results of the meeting between the Thai Prime Minister and the Cambodian Prime Minister that the atmosphere was positive. Mr. Donald Trump, President of the United States, and Mr. Anwar Ibrahim, Prime Minister of Malaysia, in his capacity as ASEAN Chair, were involved and went into the details. He considered that all parties helping to create peace was more worthwhile than losing the lives and property of the people.
In this regard, I personally had the opportunity to speak with Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen and he confirmed that we will abide by the guidelines of the agreement we signed together. This is considered a practice that will lead to a reduction in conflict management. At the same time, I also spoke with the President of the United States and asked for more support on tax matters. Thailand has cooperated with the United States on many matters. I would like to ask for help in considering further tax reductions. The Ministry of Commerce and related ministries will continue to discuss with the USTR.
Later, at 3:15 p.m. (Thailand time), Mr. Anutin gave an interview at the Military Airport 2, Wing 6, Don Mueang, after returning to Thailand. He asked about the signing of the declaration between Thailand and Cambodia, when the border area would be cleared and when the details would be seen. Mr. Anutin said that the military was coordinating and had been informed that it would be done immediately. He told him to ask the Deputy Chief of Staff who was the head of the negotiating team, who was working strongly and had good teamwork with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This was the reason for the signing of the declaration this morning.
When asked if there was an opportunity for a one-on-one talk with Hun Manet, Mr. Anutin said that no one-on-one talks had taken place yet, but that he expected more discussions to occur after the declaration was signed, as each country must strive to ensure that all conditions are met as quickly as possible to achieve a peaceful resolution. When asked by reporters if diplomatic relations with Cambodia had already begun, Mr. Anutin replied that there were still several steps to be taken. The declaration, as well as discussions with the negotiating team, contained steps that Cambodia would need to implement sequentially, parallel to Thailand's. Regarding whether the recent border conflict was now considered over, Mr. Anutin replied that the conditions must be met first.
How confident are you that this signing will receive a positive response from Cambodia? Mr. Anutin stated that this signing was witnessed and coordinated, and was done at the highest ASEAN meeting. The Malaysian Prime Minister, in his capacity as ASEAN Chair, also signed as a witness. This implies that the fulfillment of the conditions in this declaration was carried out with the knowledge and understanding of the ASEAN community, including the President of the United States. This should be a good sign. If it were us, we would not dare to do anything beyond this or not comply with it.
Mr. Anutin also mentioned his meeting with the US President, stating that they had brief discussions, requesting support on trade and tariffs. He also invited Donald Trump to visit Thailand, having not visited in about 10 years, to which he accepted in principle.
