Air strikes on casinos, colonial borders and a failed Trump ceasefire: What’s happening in the Thai-Cambodia conflict
Renewed fighting between Thailand and Cambodia along their shared border has now raged for over a week, undercutting U.S. President Donald Trump’s aspirations to be a peacemaker, while also threatening an economy that spreads across Southeast Asia.
Thai and Cambodian forces clashed earlier this year, which ended after the Trump administration helped to broker a peace deal between the two countries, both members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, a bloc of eleven Southeast Asian countries.
