Hun Sen Appears to Walk Back Earlier Remarks, Ties Peaceful Border Policy to Upcoming Elections Cambodian leader Hun Sen appeared to soften earlier remarks on disputed territory with Thailand, saying Cambodia favors peaceful negotiations rather than military force and stressing that the policy would remain part of the ruling Cambodian People's Party's platform for the 2027 and 2028 elections. Speaking at a meeting with local officials, Hun Sen said some Thai media had misrepresented comments he made earlier this week, insisting he had never called for military action and that peaceful resolution of border disputes with Thailand remains government policy. The clarification came after Cambodian media reported that Hun Sen had told displaced residents that Cambodia remained committed to reclaiming disputed territory and that there were only two ways to achieve that goal: military force or peaceful negotiations. Meanwhile, Thailand's National Security Council Secretary-General Chatchai Bangchuad said the border situation remains fragile but under control, with authorities continuing to use the joint Thai-Cambodian statement as the framework for managing tensions. Asked about Hun Sen's recent remarks, Chatchai declined to speculate on whether they were linked to domestic political considerations ahead of Cambodia's elections, saying Thailand would continue to monitor developments closely. He noted that Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet has also reaffirmed support for the joint statement. #Thailand #Cambodia #ชายแดนไทยกัมพูชา #ไทยกัมพูชา
