Thailand has confirmed initiating ceasefire talks with Cambodia following deadly border clashes that killed dozens and displaced thousands. Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet signaled readiness for “immediate and unconditional” peace, while Thailand stressed the need for verifiable commitment. Former U.S. President Donald Trump claimed he played a role in prompting the ceasefire, drawing parallels to his past mediation efforts between India and Pakistan. Despite initial diplomatic progress, skirmishes reportedly continued near the disputed Preah Vihear temple. The international community, including ASEAN and the UN, has urged restraint, with Malaysia offering to mediate the de-escalation efforts. (PC: Mint)
