Tensions are rising along the Thailand–Cambodia border as both nations reinforce their military presence following a deadly skirmish and failed de-escalation talks.
Following the death of a Cambodian soldier in a border clash on May 28, Thailand has reinforced its military presence near the undemarcated border with Cambodia. Thailand's deputy prime minister and defence minister said Cambodia rejected key de-escalation proposals during recent talks, prompting Thailand to boost its troop deployment. The Thai army accused Cambodian forces and civilians of repeated incursions, warning it is prepared to defend national sovereignty.
Cambodia's Prime Minister Hun Manet claimed the military buildup was defensive, emphasizing respect for international law. Despite warm ties between current governments, nationalist sentiment and unresolved border disputes have reignited friction. Cambodia seeks international arbitration, while Thailand insists on bilateral dialogue.
