Thai mainstream

Reports the Thai military rejecting Cambodian ceasefire-violation claims and reaffirming the General Border Committee (GBC) framework and the agreed Troop Deployment Line — the Thai account that it, not Phnom Penh, is honouring the December truce.

“The Thai military responded to Cambodia's ceasefire-violation claims, reaffirming its commitment to GBC guidelines and the agreed Troop Deployment Line.”

Thai Army position that JBC demarcation can only proceed once tensions de-escalate and the border is verified clear of landmines — the condition Cambodia reads as a stalling tactic, and the core of the current deadlock.

“The Thai Army urged Cambodia to de-escalate and clear mines before Joint Boundary Commission talks could proceed.”
