On 18 October, Prak Sokhonn, Cambodia’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, announced that Cambodia and Thailand had successfully negotiated a comprehensive peace deal aimed at normalising relations and ensuring border stability.
Sokhonn said that the two countries had agreed to rebuild diplomatic ties, remove heavy weapons from the border and clear landmines in a joint operation. Thailand has also agreed to release 18 captured Cambodian soldiers immediately, he said.
The final peace deal is expected to be formally signed by both countries, with President Trump serving as the witness, later in October.
