Trump faces anger as Thailand ignores 'ceasefire' claim and bombs on amid Cambodia border remarks

Thailand’s Foreign Minister Sihasak Phuangketkeow said Bangkok was “disappointed” with U.S. President Donald Trump’s remarks on the escalating Thailand-Cambodia border conflict, including his description of alleged landmine incidents as roadside accidents. Despite Trump claiming both sides agreed to halt fighting after calls with Thai and Cambodian leaders, Thailand denied any ceasefire and continued military operations, including airstrikes. Heavy clashes have erupted along the disputed border since December 8, marking the worst violence since July. Tensions remain high as border closures strand thousands of Thai nationals in Cambodia.
