#Issues #Thailand #Asia #Cambodia ©July 27th, 2025 ®July 27, 2025 4:32 am Asia is apparently becoming a continent of war as hope of achieving peace in the continent appeared slim since 2023 when fresh wars broke out in the Middle East Asia after Hamas attacked Israel, forcing Israel to launch a multi front wars in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Iran and Yemen, this occurred as Russia that has parts of its territory in Asia had in 2022 launched a full-scale war against its neighbouring European country, Ukraine which the multiple wars have led to millions of deaths, with many in the world expecting an end soon, but, while many in the world hoped for permanent end to the deadly wars, another fresh war broke out during the week on Thursday in the South East Asia between Cambodia and Thailand after soldiers from Royal Thai Army of 14th Infantry Battalion on Wednesday stepped on a landmine at Huai Bon, Chong An Ma, Nam Yuen District, Ubon Ratchathani Province, within the Thai-Cambodia border area causing severe injury to one Thailand soldier while four other soldiers sustained some level of injuries, making the acting Prime Minister of Thailand, Phumtham Wechayachai to recall the country’s ambassador from Phnom Penh and expelled Cambodia’s ambassador to Thailand, leading to heavy military confrontations starting next day morning, which, Cambodian News Agency on Saturday reported that tens of thousands of innocent Cambodians, including children, pregnant women, and the elderly have been forced to flee the military aggression along the border areas, including Preah Vihear, Oddar Meanchey, and Pursat, and the Royal Thai Army also on Saturday released a video of its men hoisting the Thai flag at a location and stated that the Thai national flag was raised atop Phu Makhuea, following Thai military operations to assault and seize the Phu Makhuea area, where it said the Cambodian forces had been heavily positioned, adding that the area was successfully captured during the evening of war on Friday, while the Prime Minister of Thailand, Paetongtarn Shinawatra who is currently on suspension blamed the cause of the war on alleged powerful criminals in Cambodia, saying, the conflict stems from the Thai government’s efforts to crack down on call center crimes, dismantling a network of immense financial interests linked to influential groups in Cambodia, notwithstanding, the Prime Minister of Cambodia, Samdech Moha Borvor Thipadei Hun Manet in a statement called on Cambodians not to attack businesses and citizens of Thailand living in Cambodia, adding that, after the Prime Minister of Malaysia and the Rotating Chairman of ASEAN, Anwar Ibrahim intervened in the matter on Thursday, both countries agreed to a ceasefire slated to sart on Friday by 12:00am, but, an hour after Malaysia Prime Minister told him that Thailand has agreed to the ceasefire, Thailand rescinded its decision and continued military actions against Cambodia, and the Cambodia Ministry of National Defense Spokesperson, Lieutenant General Maly Socheata in an operational updates on Saturday, said that Thailand has continued to expand its military; including its infantry Forces, heavy weaponry into Cambodia territory. #OsazuwaAkonedo

Speaker 1: Barely ten days after Israeli soldiers bombed the Holy Family
2
00:00:03,839 –> 00:00:08,199
Catholic Church in Gaza, Benjamin Netanyahu, the State of Israel
3
00:00:08,279 –> 00:00:11,679
Prime Minister, has said that Israel is now being portrayed
4
00:00:11,720 –> 00:00:15,199
as the enemy of Christians, stating that Israel has a
5
00:00:15,240 –> 00:00:19,280
thriving Christian community, the only thriving Christian community in the
6
00:00:19,280 –> 00:00:23,199
broad radius of the Middle East. Where Christians are not tolerated,
7
00:00:23,559 –> 00:00:27,640
they’re cherished, adding you can like Christmas trees in Nazareth,
8
00:00:28,079 –> 00:00:31,839
but in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus. When Israel left
9
00:00:31,879 –> 00:00:35,799
and the Palestinian authority came in, the Christian majority shrank
10
00:00:35,880 –> 00:00:38,960
from eighty percent to under twenty percent because there was
11
00:00:39,000 –> 00:00:43,000
no more Israel to protect them. Though Prime Minister Benjamin
12
00:00:43,039 –> 00:00:46,520
Netanyahu did not mention the bombing of the Catholic Church
13
00:00:46,679 –> 00:00:49,359
in Gaza that led to the killing of three persons
14
00:00:49,399 –> 00:00:53,039
and injuring to several people, including the parish priest, it
15
00:00:53,079 –> 00:00:56,759
could be recalled that the Israel Defense Forces idf action
16
00:00:56,880 –> 00:01:01,159
against the Christian Holy Place in Gaza sparked blows condemnations
17
00:01:01,520 –> 00:01:04,640
with the head of the Catholic Church, Popelio the fourteenth,
18
00:01:04,719 –> 00:01:08,599
in a statement on Sunday, July twentieth, twenty twenty five,
19
00:01:08,840 –> 00:01:12,519
while speaking after his Angelus prayer, read out the names
20
00:01:12,519 –> 00:01:15,760
of those killed in the incident and said, I appeal
21
00:01:15,799 –> 00:01:19,920
to the international community to observe humanitarian law and respect
22
00:01:19,959 –> 00:01:23,400
the obligation to protect civilians, as well as the prohibition
23
00:01:23,480 –> 00:01:27,280
of collective punishment of indiscriminate use of force and force
24
00:01:27,359 –> 00:01:31,599
displacement of the population. During a church event on Sunday,
25
00:01:31,959 –> 00:01:36,400
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while speaking at the Daystars Together
26
00:01:36,480 –> 00:01:40,400
as One event in Jerusalem with Pastor Paula White, leader
27
00:01:40,439 –> 00:01:43,599
of the White House Faith Office, said Iran is now
28
00:01:43,640 –> 00:01:47,159
being projected as the friend of the Americans. Word to
29
00:01:47,239 –> 00:01:51,200
word of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech, as transcribed and
30
00:01:51,239 –> 00:01:54,280
made available by the Office of the Israel Prime Minister
31
00:01:54,400 –> 00:01:59,319
on Sunday, reads below. Thank you Joni, thank you Daystar,
32
00:01:59,719 –> 00:02:03,560
Thanks Paula, Thank you ambassadors and the many friends of Israel.
33
00:02:03,640 –> 00:02:06,599
In the Christian world. This is the city in the
34
00:02:06,719 –> 00:02:10,400
land where it all began, the Judeo Christian tradition that
35
00:02:10,439 –> 00:02:14,800
promoted the belief in monotheism a single God, that developed
36
00:02:14,800 –> 00:02:17,719
the idea of the sanctity of life. The sanctity of
37
00:02:17,800 –> 00:02:22,080
individual life, the idea of freedom. In an ancient world
38
00:02:22,159 –> 00:02:25,759
that was swamped with massive slavery to build these ancient empires,
39
00:02:26,199 –> 00:02:28,919
the Jewish people came out with the idea that slavery
40
00:02:28,960 –> 00:02:33,599
should be limited and ultimately removed. This was revolutionary. The
41
00:02:33,599 –> 00:02:36,800
beginning of the idea of freedom began in this land,
42
00:02:37,240 –> 00:02:40,520
and that idea spread throughout the centuries and especially in
43
00:02:40,599 –> 00:02:44,560
modern times, and changed the world. It gives hope to
44
00:02:44,599 –> 00:02:48,280
the world. It gives meaning to our lives. It gives
45
00:02:48,280 –> 00:02:52,159
a bond between the world’s greatest democracy, the United States
46
00:02:52,159 –> 00:02:55,639
of America, and the world’s vibrant democracy here in Israel.
47
00:02:56,400 –> 00:02:59,840
And that’s a partnership that is bonded in faith, in history,
48
00:03:00,120 –> 00:03:03,800
in tradition. I have the great privilege of being invited
49
00:03:03,840 –> 00:03:06,719
to speak at the Joint Session of the American Congress,
50
00:03:07,479 –> 00:03:09,560
and I look on the wall and I see a
51
00:03:09,639 –> 00:03:14,400
quote from Moses. That’s our common tradition, our common well spring.
52
00:03:14,840 –> 00:03:18,080
We’re immersed in the Bible, we live the Bible. We
53
00:03:18,159 –> 00:03:21,000
have a future because we have a past, and that
54
00:03:21,159 –> 00:03:24,960
past is shared by millions, hundreds of millions around the world.
55
00:03:25,680 –> 00:03:27,879
And I want to thank you on behalf of the
56
00:03:27,919 –> 00:03:30,800
people of Israel and the Jewish people for that enduring
57
00:03:30,879 –> 00:03:34,599
friendship which is the mainstay of our present and future
58
00:03:34,639 –> 00:03:38,080
ability to live in a free, prosperous and peaceful world.
59
00:03:38,800 –> 00:03:42,039
But that bond is being challenged today. It is being
60
00:03:42,159 –> 00:03:46,759
challenged today by a fanatic fundamentalism, an Islamist fundamentalism that
61
00:03:46,840 –> 00:03:50,439
seeks to subjugate all Muslims that they view as infidels,
62
00:03:50,639 –> 00:03:54,000
eradicate the American and obviously the Israeli presence in the
63
00:03:54,039 –> 00:03:58,479
Middle East. They call America the great Satan, Israel is
64
00:03:58,520 –> 00:04:02,039
the small Satan for but it’s a small state that
65
00:04:02,280 –> 00:04:05,560
standing in their way, and we fight them. We fight
66
00:04:05,639 –> 00:04:09,439
them together, as we recently have with President Trump’s leadership
67
00:04:09,479 –> 00:04:12,479
and our partnership. And yet we see the effort to
68
00:04:12,479 –> 00:04:15,680
break down our bond in America and other parts of
69
00:04:15,719 –> 00:04:20,560
the world, that partnership that promotes Judeo Christian values, that
70
00:04:20,600 –> 00:04:23,959
protects in Israel Christians as nowhere else in the Middle East,
71
00:04:24,000 –> 00:04:26,759
that truth is being reversed, put on its head by
72
00:04:26,800 –> 00:04:30,519
a campaign of lies. Israel is now portrayed as the
73
00:04:30,639 –> 00:04:34,439
enemy of Christians, and the enemies of Christians are portrayed
74
00:04:34,480 –> 00:04:38,639
as the friends of the United States. Iran a friend
75
00:04:38,680 –> 00:04:43,079
of the United States, an innocent victim the Muslim brotherhood
76
00:04:43,360 –> 00:04:47,399
who chanted death to America alongside Iran friends of America
77
00:04:48,120 –> 00:04:52,639
for mass These monsters, these monsters who burned babies, raped
78
00:04:52,639 –> 00:04:56,120
our women, beheaded our men, and chanted death to America,
79
00:04:56,560 –> 00:05:01,240
Friends of America. Israel has a thriving Christian community, the
80
00:05:01,279 –> 00:05:04,800
only thriving Christian community in the broad broad radius of
81
00:05:04,839 –> 00:05:08,839
the Middle East, where Christians are not tolerated, They’re cherished.
82
00:05:09,560 –> 00:05:13,120
You can light Christmas trees in Nazareth, but in Bethlehem,
83
00:05:13,399 –> 00:05:17,160
the birthplace of Jesus. When Israel left and the Palestinian
84
00:05:17,199 –> 00:05:20,879
authority came in, the Christian majority shrank from eighty percent
85
00:05:20,920 –> 00:05:24,079
to under twenty percent because there was no more Israel
86
00:05:24,160 –> 00:05:28,720
to protect them. We cherish our Christian friends. We protect
87
00:05:28,800 –> 00:05:32,000
the Christian holy sites, not only the Church of the
88
00:05:32,040 –> 00:05:35,639
Holy Sepulcher, but in the Galilee, not only in Nazareth,
89
00:05:35,680 –> 00:05:39,000
but in the Galilee in Capernam, where Jesus preached for
90
00:05:39,040 –> 00:05:43,879
three years. We uphold and cherish those sites. So Israel,
91
00:05:44,160 –> 00:05:47,519
the guardian of Christianity in the Middle East, is presented
92
00:05:47,560 –> 00:05:51,839
on American television by purchased influences, its presented as the
93
00:05:51,959 –> 00:05:56,959
enemy of Christianity. What folly, what lies? What a travesty
94
00:05:57,000 –> 00:05:59,680
of truth. So one of the things we have fought
95
00:05:59,759 –> 00:06:03,079
now in the Seventh Front War, we have an eighth front,
96
00:06:03,360 –> 00:06:06,160
and that is the front and the battle for truth.
97
00:06:06,879 –> 00:06:09,160
And I can think of no one who can carry
98
00:06:09,199 –> 00:06:12,240
this battle alongside with us, no one who can do
99
00:06:12,360 –> 00:06:15,759
it better than you on this channel, the New Paula
100
00:06:16,079 –> 00:06:19,079
and our many Christian friends. We must fight for our
101
00:06:19,120 –> 00:06:22,720
common values. We must stand up for the truth. And
102
00:06:22,839 –> 00:06:26,079
by standing up for the truth, you stand up with Israel,
103
00:06:26,319 –> 00:06:29,240
and you stand with the Jewish people against this abomination
104
00:06:29,360 –> 00:06:32,879
of falsehoods. We can win this war exactly as we
105
00:06:32,920 –> 00:06:36,160
win the Seventh Front War. And I thank you for
106
00:06:36,240 –> 00:06:39,800
your support. I want to address also the ambassadors who
107
00:06:39,839 –> 00:06:43,519
are here. Your countries have strong Christian communities and a
108
00:06:43,600 –> 00:06:46,800
strong bond with us too, and I want to thank
109
00:06:46,879 –> 00:06:49,560
you for your support and the many, many millions around
110
00:06:49,560 –> 00:06:52,399
the world who have voiced support for Israel during our
111
00:06:52,399 –> 00:06:56,639
great battles here. We haven’t finished, but we’re winning and
112
00:06:56,720 –> 00:06:59,959
we’ll continue to win. But the main thing that I’m
113
00:07:00,000 –> 00:07:02,639
want to stress is the importance of winning the battle
114
00:07:02,720 –> 00:07:05,680
for truth, and that is a battle that we fought.
115
00:07:05,759 –> 00:07:09,480
Even as we speak now, Israel is presented as though
116
00:07:09,519 –> 00:07:13,120
we are applying a campaign of starvation in Gaza. What
117
00:07:13,240 –> 00:07:16,680
a bold faced lie. There is no policy of starvation
118
00:07:16,800 –> 00:07:20,480
in Gaza, and there is no starvation in Gaza. We
119
00:07:20,600 –> 00:07:24,079
enable humanitarian aid throughout the duration of the war to
120
00:07:24,240 –> 00:07:28,560
enter Gaza. Otherwise there would be no Gazans. And what
121
00:07:28,720 –> 00:07:32,399
has interdicted the supply of humanitarian aid is one force
122
00:07:32,759 –> 00:07:37,000
her mass again the reverse of the truth. Her mass
123
00:07:37,079 –> 00:07:41,000
robs steals this humanitarian aid and then accuses Israel of
124
00:07:41,079 –> 00:07:45,120
not supplying it. Well, we have enabled the amount required
125
00:07:45,199 –> 00:07:48,480
by international law to come in. There are hundreds and
126
00:07:48,560 –> 00:07:52,279
hundreds of trucks loaded with tons. So far, we’ve supplied
127
00:07:52,319 –> 00:07:55,480
one point nine million tons of food since the beginning
128
00:07:55,519 –> 00:07:58,720
of the war, almost two million tons, and now we
129
00:07:58,800 –> 00:08:01,800
have hundreds of trucks waiting on the Gazan side of
130
00:08:01,839 –> 00:08:06,800
the Kerem Shalom crossing and its international organizations, some of
131
00:08:06,839 –> 00:08:10,879
them very well intended, and it’s the UN too food
132
00:08:10,879 –> 00:08:14,480
that they purchased, and we say go ahead, deliver it
133
00:08:15,199 –> 00:08:18,680
and they say we can’t because combat is going on,
134
00:08:19,600 –> 00:08:23,879
and we say yes, where we’re fighting. We’ll continue to fight,
135
00:08:24,199 –> 00:08:27,360
but there are safe corridors. You can bring the food
136
00:08:27,399 –> 00:08:30,720
to anywhere you want. That is not a problem. So
137
00:08:30,839 –> 00:08:34,440
we have just announced that formerly here are safe corridors,
138
00:08:35,200 –> 00:08:39,240
and the UN has no excuses left, no excuses left.
139
00:08:39,559 –> 00:08:43,679
Stop lying, stop finding excuses, do what you have to do,
140
00:08:43,720 –> 00:08:48,120
and stop accusing Israel deliberately of this egregious falsehood. There
141
00:08:48,159 –> 00:08:52,279
is no starvation in Gaza, no policy of starvation in Gaza.
142
00:08:52,600 –> 00:08:54,559
And I assure you that we have a commitment to
143
00:08:54,639 –> 00:08:58,440
achieve our war goals. We will continue to fight till
144
00:08:58,519 –> 00:09:01,360
we achieve the release of our hostages and the destruction
145
00:09:01,480 –> 00:09:05,559
of her Mass’s military and governing capabilities. They shall be
146
00:09:05,639 –> 00:09:08,399
there no more. We shall not have any more of
147
00:09:08,440 –> 00:09:12,320
these massacres. We shall not have any more of these monstrosities.
148
00:09:13,080 –> 00:09:16,200
We stand for human freedom and human life, and that
149
00:09:16,279 –> 00:09:18,919
is not commensurate with Hermas or with Iran or other
150
00:09:18,960 –> 00:09:23,480
Iranian proxies. We have fought this battle together. We shall
151
00:09:23,519 –> 00:09:26,519
win it together. And I want to assure you that
152
00:09:26,559 –> 00:09:29,559
we have great faith in your faith and in our faith.
153
00:09:30,320 –> 00:09:33,279
We have a common bond. It is strong, it is
154
00:09:33,320 –> 00:09:36,679
something that represents the vast majority of Americans, and I
155
00:09:36,759 –> 00:09:40,120
would say just about all Israelis and by the way,
156
00:09:40,480 –> 00:09:43,000
Jews and non Jews alike, because we know that our
157
00:09:43,080 –> 00:09:46,960
standing together assures our common future. So I want to
158
00:09:47,039 –> 00:09:49,519
thank you on behalf of the State of Israel for
159
00:09:49,600 –> 00:09:52,679
everything that you’re doing, and as the saying goes, for
160
00:09:52,759 –> 00:09:56,440
everything that you will do. Thank you all, Thank you
161
00:09:56,600 –> 00:10:08,240
very much. Quindi Uni Royal Thai Army and the Cambodia
162
00:10:08,320 –> 00:10:11,639
National Ministry of Defense have both denied firing the ten
163
00:10:11,720 –> 00:10:16,039
projectiles that destroyed civilian houses and properties at Emerald Triangle,
164
00:10:16,519 –> 00:10:19,759
a city in Now on Thursday, just as both government
165
00:10:19,840 –> 00:10:23,559
establishments confirmed early in the morning on Sunday that fighting
166
00:10:23,639 –> 00:10:27,919
continued through Saturday night to Sunday morning night. Despite President
167
00:10:28,000 –> 00:10:31,600
Donald Trump of the United States u S statement on
168
00:10:31,679 –> 00:10:34,559
Saturday that he has spoken on phone with both the
169
00:10:34,600 –> 00:10:38,519
Prime Minister of Cambodia and the acting Prime Minister of
170
00:10:38,559 –> 00:10:42,519
Thailand asking the two parties to agree on immediate cease fire,
171
00:10:42,600 –> 00:10:46,279
and failure to do so, according to Trump, US will
172
00:10:46,320 –> 00:10:49,960
not make any business deal with both countries. In his words,
173
00:10:50,320 –> 00:10:54,600
Trump said, we happen to be by coincidents currently dealing
174
00:10:54,600 –> 00:10:57,519
on trade with both countries, but do not want to
175
00:10:57,519 –> 00:11:00,720
make any deal with either country if they are fighting,
176
00:11:01,000 –> 00:11:03,879
and I have told them so. The call with Thailand
177
00:11:03,960 –> 00:11:07,519
is being made momentarily. The call with Cambodia has ended,
178
00:11:07,720 –> 00:11:10,919
but expect a call back regarding war stoppage and cease
179
00:11:10,960 –> 00:11:14,480
fire based on what Thailand has to say. I am
180
00:11:14,559 –> 00:11:18,360
trying to simplify a complex situation. Many people are being
181
00:11:18,480 –> 00:11:21,399
killed in this war, but it very much reminds me
182
00:11:21,440 –> 00:11:25,080
of the conflict between Pakistan and India, which was brought
183
00:11:25,120 –> 00:11:28,919
to a successful halt. The Lao government had on Friday
184
00:11:29,000 –> 00:11:32,440
reported that ten bombs were found having been fired into
185
00:11:32,480 –> 00:11:36,360
civilian areas and affecting local residents in the Emerald Triangle,
186
00:11:36,720 –> 00:11:40,320
a town in Lao that borders both Lao, Thailand and Cambodia.
187
00:11:41,039 –> 00:11:44,440
A statement from the Lao People’s Armed Forces on Saturday
188
00:11:44,480 –> 00:11:48,919
afternoon refuted earlier media reports claiming clashes between the Lao
189
00:11:48,960 –> 00:11:53,519
People’s Armed Forces and Cambodian armed personnel, describing the reports
190
00:11:53,519 –> 00:11:58,080
as untrue, denying the shelling in Lao. The Royal Thailand Army,
191
00:11:58,159 –> 00:12:01,720
in a statement on Saturday, said that the Royal Thai
192
00:12:01,840 –> 00:12:05,639
Army clarifies case of artillery shells landing in laopid R
193
00:12:05,840 –> 00:12:10,440
territory in Emerald Triangle Area confirms investigation found they were
194
00:12:10,480 –> 00:12:14,879
not Thai forces ammunition. According to news reports, on the
195
00:12:14,919 –> 00:12:18,840
twenty fourth of July twenty twenty five, at approximately nine
196
00:12:18,960 –> 00:12:22,759
forty hours, ten artillery shells landed in the territory of
197
00:12:22,799 –> 00:12:28,000
the Lao People’s Democratic Republic LAOPDR in the Emerald Triangle area,
198
00:12:28,360 –> 00:12:32,519
which is the border junction between Thailand, LAOS and Cambodia,
199
00:12:32,840 –> 00:12:36,159
without clear confirmation as to which side the shells belonged to,
200
00:12:36,679 –> 00:12:40,080
and preliminarily there were no reports of casualties or property
201
00:12:40,159 –> 00:12:45,480
damage from the incident. Major General Wintai Suburi Army spokesperson
202
00:12:45,840 –> 00:12:50,960
issued a clarification that following fact finding investigations and coordination
203
00:12:51,159 –> 00:12:55,080
with security agencies of the Lao PDR, it is confirmed
204
00:12:55,080 –> 00:12:58,200
that they were definitely not shells from the Thai military side,
205
00:12:58,399 –> 00:13:01,799
and the Royal Thai Army has confidence in its capability
206
00:13:01,840 –> 00:13:07,240
to control weapon usage effectively, appropriately, proportionately, and strictly within
207
00:13:07,360 –> 00:13:12,320
international rules of engagement. However, in the recent period, it
208
00:13:12,399 –> 00:13:15,320
has often been found that the Cambodian side has been
209
00:13:15,440 –> 00:13:19,639
using long range fire support weapons to attack numerous civilian
210
00:13:19,759 –> 00:13:23,159
targets throughout the past two days, which appears to be
211
00:13:23,200 –> 00:13:26,879
intentional and deliberate use of such weapons against targets other
212
00:13:26,919 –> 00:13:31,039
than military objectives, such as using weapons against historical sites,
213
00:13:31,320 –> 00:13:36,200
aiming to significantly mislead the international community against the Thai side.
214
00:13:36,360 –> 00:13:39,240
The Royal Thai Army confirms that the Thai side has
215
00:13:39,320 –> 00:13:43,799
strict measures for controlling weapon usage, particularly in areas adjacent
216
00:13:43,840 –> 00:13:47,159
to the border, to prevent impact on civilians or areas
217
00:13:47,240 –> 00:13:51,840
unrelated to military operations. The Royal Thai Army will continue
218
00:13:51,840 –> 00:13:56,000
to coordinate closely with the LAOPDR side to maintain positive
219
00:13:56,039 –> 00:13:59,759
relations between the two countries. The Royal Thai Army Public
220
00:13:59,799 –> 00:14:03,639
Rule Nations Center Army Spokesperson team stated this on the
221
00:14:03,679 –> 00:14:08,039
twenty sixth of July twenty twenty five. In a swift reaction,
222
00:14:08,480 –> 00:14:12,480
the Cambodia Ministry of National Defense, in a statement also
223
00:14:12,559 –> 00:14:16,320
on Saturday, said the Ministry of National Defense of the
224
00:14:16,399 –> 00:14:20,279
Kingdom of Cambodia categorically rejects and condemns in the strongest
225
00:14:20,399 –> 00:14:24,279
terms the false and malicious accusation by Thailand that Cambodia
226
00:14:24,320 –> 00:14:30,039
deliberately launched Projectile’s inter Laosian territory. This baseless allegation reflects
227
00:14:30,039 –> 00:14:33,600
a disturbing pattern of deceit by the Thai military, first
228
00:14:33,639 –> 00:14:38,200
fabricating lies to justify its unprovoked aggression against Cambodia, and
229
00:14:38,320 –> 00:14:43,000
now seeking to manipulate international opinion by undermining Cambodia’s reputation.
230
00:14:43,919 –> 00:14:48,679
Such irresponsible rhetoric is not only patently false, but dangerously inflammatory,
231
00:14:49,080 –> 00:14:52,840
particularly as the Lao authorities have neither concluded their investigation
232
00:14:53,039 –> 00:14:57,919
nor issued any such claim. Cambodia demands that Thailand immediately
233
00:14:58,000 –> 00:15:01,879
sees its deliberate disinformation CA campaign, which merely serves to
234
00:15:01,919 –> 00:15:05,960
deflect attention from its own flagrant violations of international law.
235
00:15:06,759 –> 00:15:10,279
Unlike Thailand, Cambodia has not and will not violate the
236
00:15:10,360 –> 00:15:14,919
sovereignty of any neighboring state, including the Lao People’s Democratic Republic.
237
00:15:15,639 –> 00:15:19,919
Cambodia reiterates its unwavering respect for the sovereignty and territorial
238
00:15:19,919 –> 00:15:23,480
integrity of all nations, and affirms its readiness to extend
239
00:15:23,559 –> 00:15:27,240
full cooperation to the Lao People’s Army to investigate the
240
00:15:27,320 –> 00:15:33,519
incident in a responsible, professional and transparent manner. Lieutenant General Meliskita,
241
00:15:34,000 –> 00:15:37,039
under Secretary of State and spokesperson of the Ministry of
242
00:15:37,120 –> 00:15:40,879
National Defense of the Kingdom of Cambodia stated this on Saturday,
243
00:15:40,960 –> 00:15:45,519
July twenty six, twenty twenty five. On Sunday early morning,
244
00:15:45,840 –> 00:15:48,919
the Royal Thailand Army issued a report and stated that
245
00:15:49,360 –> 00:15:53,320
today the twenty seventh of July twenty twenty five, Major
246
00:15:53,440 –> 00:15:58,919
General Wintaisubari Army spokesperson address the latest situation, stating that
247
00:15:58,960 –> 00:16:02,840
Cambodia continue use its military activities by employing long range
248
00:16:02,919 –> 00:16:07,559
weapons and firing into Thai territory. Continuous clashes have occurred
249
00:16:07,559 –> 00:16:11,200
at multiple points along the front lines with numerous long
250
00:16:11,320 –> 00:16:15,480
range support weapons landing outside their intended military target areas
251
00:16:15,519 –> 00:16:20,120
in Suran Province. Thailand therefore finds it necessary to conduct
252
00:16:20,240 –> 00:16:23,799
military operations in response to the continued firing of long
253
00:16:23,919 –> 00:16:27,279
range support weapons such as rockets and artillery that persist
254
00:16:27,360 –> 00:16:32,759
in targeting Thai territory to prevent civilian casualties or losses. Yesterday,
255
00:16:32,960 –> 00:16:36,679
the twenty sixth of July twenty twenty five, at approximately
256
00:16:36,759 –> 00:16:41,639
fifteen to thirty hours, Cambodian artillery shells targeted the Subdistrict
257
00:16:41,679 –> 00:16:47,159
Health Promoting Hospital at Bansambeng Village three, Southong Chai Subdistrict,
258
00:16:47,399 –> 00:16:51,960
Kantharallak District, c say Khat Province, causing severe damage to
259
00:16:52,000 –> 00:16:56,519
the building structure. However, there were no fatalities or injuries,
260
00:16:56,840 –> 00:17:02,480
as medical personnel had previously evacuated patients from the facility. Furthermore,
261
00:17:02,799 –> 00:17:07,559
intelligence reports indicate potential deployment of high performance weapons systems
262
00:17:07,599 –> 00:17:12,039
such as PHL zero three, Rule seventy and VM twenty
263
00:17:12,039 –> 00:17:16,200
one that may provide additional support to Cambodian forces. This
264
00:17:16,400 –> 00:17:21,279
may reflect Cambodia’s stance, which Thailand cannot yet trust. According
265
00:17:21,319 –> 00:17:25,200
to the latest situation, Cambodian forces have not ceased their
266
00:17:25,200 –> 00:17:29,440
attacks using all forms of weaponry against Thai forces. The
267
00:17:29,519 –> 00:17:32,720
Royal Thai Army will operate at full capacity to counter
268
00:17:32,799 –> 00:17:36,880
this aggression and reaffirms its continued focus on military targets
269
00:17:36,880 –> 00:17:40,240
that pose military threats and endanger the lives and property
270
00:17:40,279 –> 00:17:44,119
of our fellow citizens only within the appropriate framework of
271
00:17:44,160 –> 00:17:48,240
international rules of engagement to protect and maintain sovereignty to
272
00:17:48,279 –> 00:17:51,160
the best of our ability. The Royal Thai Army Public
273
00:17:51,240 –> 00:17:55,200
Relations Center Army Spokesperson Team stated this in a press
274
00:17:55,279 –> 00:17:58,599
statement on the twenty seventh of July twenty twenty five.
275
00:17:59,400 –> 00:18:03,279
A few minutes later, the Cambodia Ministry of National Defense
276
00:18:03,359 –> 00:18:06,920
reacted and stated that the Ministry of National Defense of
277
00:18:07,000 –> 00:18:10,440
the Kingdom of Cambodia categorically rejects and condemns in the
278
00:18:10,480 –> 00:18:15,640
strongest terms the baseless and irresponsible accusation by Thailand that
279
00:18:15,680 –> 00:18:20,079
Cambodia initiated hostilities. This false claim is nothing more than
280
00:18:20,119 –> 00:18:23,519
a desperate attempt to shift attention away from Thailand’s own
281
00:18:23,599 –> 00:18:28,160
flagrant and repeated violations of Cambodia’s sovereignty and international law.
282
00:18:28,920 –> 00:18:32,279
The facts are indisputable. It was Thailand that launched the
283
00:18:32,319 –> 00:18:36,519
first wave of brutal attacks against Cambodian territory. On the
284
00:18:36,559 –> 00:18:40,240
twenty seventh of July twenty twenty five, at two o’clock,
285
00:18:40,559 –> 00:18:44,680
Thai forces shelled Veal in Trelocation. By two thirty, they
286
00:18:44,720 –> 00:18:48,480
expanded the bombardment to Tarthau pan On three hundred thirty
287
00:18:48,519 –> 00:18:52,640
three and Panom coamouch And at four fifty additional shellings
288
00:18:52,680 –> 00:18:57,160
struck Tamman Tom and Tarkrabi. At six o’clock, Thai ground
289
00:18:57,200 –> 00:19:01,599
troops invaded Panom coamouch and sees and Veal entry location,
290
00:19:02,119 –> 00:19:05,599
followed by a large scale incursion at six thirty involving
291
00:19:05,680 –> 00:19:10,839
tax and ground troops into multiple areas including Veal Entry five, Makara,
292
00:19:11,079 –> 00:19:15,759
Penom Comauch and An Sees. In a separate statement, the
293
00:19:15,799 –> 00:19:19,720
spokesperson of the Cambodia Ministry of National Defense added that
294
00:19:20,279 –> 00:19:23,519
as of now, violations from the Thai side continue and
295
00:19:23,599 –> 00:19:27,799
have escalated beyond the initial incidents. Since five a m.
296
00:19:27,920 –> 00:19:32,079
Yesterday in the operational zone of Military Region four, Thai
297
00:19:32,160 –> 00:19:36,200
forces began launching continuous and intense attax toward Boss sb
298
00:19:36,359 –> 00:19:41,240
O V. These escalations include the following incidents. At ten
299
00:19:41,359 –> 00:19:44,599

300
00:19:44,680 –> 00:19:48,599
road leading to PreO Vehre Temple. At eleven fifty six,
301
00:19:48,640 –> 00:19:51,599
a M a Thai aircraft dropped a cluster bomb on
302

303
00:19:55,960 –> 00:19:59,359
ground assort using armored vehicles in the Veal Intrae area.
304
00:20:00,160 –> 00:20:04,720
From two thirty PM onward, the situation gradually deescalated until
305
00:20:04,759 –> 00:20:09,319

00:31:48,480 –> 00:31:53,359
deliberately launched unprovoked attacks against Cambodia and is increasingly violating
474
00:31:53,440 –> 00:31:58,559
Cambodian’s sovereignty while continuing to make exaggerated and unfounded accusations
475
00:31:58,599 –> 00:32:05,039
against Cambodia. This clearly reveals a premeditated plan to invade Cambodia. Five.
476
00:32:05,359 –> 00:32:08,680
The Ministry of National Defense of Cambodia calls on the
477
00:32:08,720 –> 00:32:15,799
international community, including the United Nations Security Council, Asian international partners,
478
00:32:16,119 –> 00:32:19,960
and diplomatic missions, to strongly condemn the brazen and reckless
479
00:32:19,960 –> 00:32:24,960
aggression against Cambodia. Six. We call on the international community
480
00:32:25,000 –> 00:32:28,480
to take urgent measures to prevent further troop deployments aimed
481
00:32:28,480 –> 00:32:32,359
at attacking Cambodia, to ensure that Thailand respects the full
482
00:32:32,480 –> 00:32:36,599
territorial integrity of Cambodia, and to hold Thailand accountable for
483
00:32:36,640 –> 00:32:40,839
its violations of the United Nations Charter, the Geneva Conventions,
484
00:32:41,079 –> 00:32:45,920
and the ASI Entreaty of Amity and Cooperation. Seven. Cambodia
485
00:32:46,039 –> 00:32:50,200
remains firmly committed to resolving the issue peacefully in accordance
486
00:32:50,240 –> 00:32:53,759
with international law, while reserving our right to self defense
487
00:32:53,880 –> 00:32:57,160
under Article fifty one of the United Nations Charter and
488
00:32:57,200 –> 00:33:01,200
to defend our people, sovereignty and to territorial integrity to
489
00:33:01,240 –> 00:33:05,720
the fullest extent against Thailand’s aggression and violent acts. Eight.
490
00:33:06,079 –> 00:33:10,839
Thailand’s incursions have expanded to other provinces of Cambodia, including
491
00:33:10,920 –> 00:33:15,400
five artillery attacks in Edma Da Commune, Vilveng District, Pursed
492
00:33:15,480 –> 00:33:19,880
Province in the Fourth Zone. Thailand also launched attacks in
493
00:33:20,000 –> 00:33:24,640
three locations Veal Intry, tathav and choon Tea. On the
494
00:33:24,680 –> 00:33:29,920
morning of July twenty six nine, Cambodia once again condemns
495
00:33:29,960 –> 00:33:35,079
the aggression and premeditated provocations by Thailand. Cambodia reaffirms our
496
00:33:35,119 –> 00:33:38,920
commitment to maintaining peace and security, but nevertheless reserves the
497
00:33:39,000 –> 00:33:41,440
right to defend our sovereignty as a victim of the
498
00:33:41,440 –> 00:33:46,400
Thaisis violations. We assert our principle of targeting only military
499
00:33:46,440 –> 00:33:50,599
objectives on the Thai side, ensuring that civilians remain unharmed.
500
00:33:51,400 –> 00:33:55,400
Ten Thus far, the Cambodian Army has remained resolute and
501
00:33:55,519 –> 00:34:00,359
unwavering in its defense of Cambodia’s territorial integrity, standing firm
502
00:34:00,400 –> 00:34:04,200
against the threats and coercion from Thailand. The Cambodian National
503
00:34:04,240 –> 00:34:08,599
Defense stated The Cambodia Ministry of Information, also in a
504
00:34:08,639 –> 00:34:13,840
statement on Saturday, stated that Thailand is using information manipulation
505
00:34:14,039 –> 00:34:17,760
warfare strategies to fabricate pretexts for its armed aggression of
506
00:34:17,800 –> 00:34:22,599
Cambodian territory, while falsely portraying itself as the victim. We
507
00:34:22,599 –> 00:34:26,039
would like to inform our fellow Cambodian citizens that the
508
00:34:26,119 –> 00:34:29,360
Thai media has colluded with the Thai government and military
509
00:34:29,360 –> 00:34:33,360
to fabricate and disseminate fake news aimed at demonizing Cambodia
510
00:34:33,760 –> 00:34:36,360
in order to create a pretext for their own armed
511
00:34:36,360 –> 00:34:42,000
invasion and violation of Cambodia’s territorial integrity. Both the Thai government,
512
00:34:42,360 –> 00:34:46,440
its military, and media outlets have employed deceptive tactics to
513
00:34:46,480 –> 00:34:51,159
provoke incidents according to their premeditated invasion plans. The Thai
514
00:34:51,239 –> 00:34:55,480
military’s armed incursion was carefully planned and prepared long in advance.
515
00:34:56,280 –> 00:35:00,159
The blueprint of Thailand’s military aggression is clear, beginning with
516
00:35:00,199 –> 00:35:04,840
a preemptive attack on Cambodian forces, followed by shamelessly placing
517
00:35:04,880 –> 00:35:09,079
all blame on Cambodia without any sense of remorse or accountability.
518
00:35:09,880 –> 00:35:14,639
Cambodia tells the truth. Thailand lies to the world, Cambodia
519
00:35:14,719 –> 00:35:18,639
has no interest in invading Thailand. Eur Own News reported
520
00:35:18,639 –> 00:35:21,880
that as the conflict between the two countries enters its
521
00:35:21,920 –> 00:35:24,800
third day, at least thirty people have been killed and
522
00:35:24,880 –> 00:35:30,199
thousands forced to flee their homes. Cambodia’s UN Ambassador Chi
523
00:35:30,280 –> 00:35:35,000
Kio called for an immediate unconditional cease fire with Thailand
524
00:35:35,039 –> 00:35:38,159
on Friday, after the dispute between the two countries entered
525
00:35:38,199 –> 00:35:42,519
its third day. The UN Security Council held an emergency
526
00:35:42,599 –> 00:35:46,159
meeting behind closed doors late Friday in New York, with
527
00:35:46,239 –> 00:35:49,840
all fifteen members calling on the parties to deescalate, show
528
00:35:49,920 –> 00:35:53,880
restraint and resolve the dispute peacefully. We also call for
529
00:35:53,920 –> 00:35:57,840
the peaceful solution to the dispute, said chi Kio. He
530
00:35:58,000 –> 00:36:02,480
responded to accusations that Cambodia attacked Thailand, asking how a
531
00:36:02,519 –> 00:36:05,400
small country with no air force could attack a much
532
00:36:05,480 –> 00:36:09,280
larger country with an army three times its size, stressing
533
00:36:09,559 –> 00:36:13,440
we do not do that. Thailand’s UN ambassador left the
534
00:36:13,480 –> 00:36:17,840
meeting without stopping to talk to reporters, but Thailand’s acting
535
00:36:17,920 –> 00:36:21,880
Prime Minister Funtham Wechaiai said Friday that Cambodia may be
536
00:36:21,960 –> 00:36:24,719
guilty of war crimes due to the deaths of civilians
537
00:36:24,800 –> 00:36:28,519
and damage caused to a hospital. He said Thailand had
538
00:36:28,559 –> 00:36:31,920
exercised the utmost restraint and patients in the face of
539
00:36:31,960 –> 00:36:37,440
provocations and aggression from Cambodia. Meanwhile, the Thailand Ministry of
540
00:36:37,519 –> 00:36:41,079
Foreign Affairs, in a statement on Saturday evenings, stated that
541
00:36:41,599 –> 00:36:45,000
Ministry of Foreign Affairs wishes to inform that a few
542
00:36:45,039 –> 00:36:49,400
moments ago, Acting Prime Minister fumthham Wechaiyai had a conversation
543
00:36:49,559 –> 00:36:54,159
with President Trump, who requested the Thailand and Cambodia agreed
544
00:36:54,159 –> 00:36:58,280
to a cease fire immediately. Acting Prime Minister thanked President
545
00:36:58,320 –> 00:37:01,320
Trump for his concern and express as the Thailand agrees
546
00:37:01,360 –> 00:37:05,920
in principle to have a ceasefire in place. However, Thailand
547
00:37:05,960 –> 00:37:09,599
would like to see sincere intention from the Cambodian side.
548
00:37:10,159 –> 00:37:13,880
Acting Prime Minister thus requested President Trump to convey to
549
00:37:13,920 –> 00:37:17,480
the Cambodian side that Thailand wants to convene a bilateral
550
00:37:17,519 –> 00:37:20,559
dialogue as soon as possible to bring forth measures and
551
00:37:20,599 –> 00:37:24,280
procedures for the ceasefire and the eventual peaceful resolution of
552
00:37:24,320 –> 00:37:28,039
the conflict. It would be recalled that on June twenty six,
553
00:37:28,159 –> 00:37:31,880
twenty twenty five, The Kingdom of Cambodia had stated in
554
00:37:31,920 –> 00:37:36,760
its government website that Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Maney raised
555
00:37:36,800 –> 00:37:40,199
concerns about the lack of clarity and inconsistency between the
556
00:37:40,280 –> 00:37:43,559
Thai Prime Minister and the taime military regarding the closure
557
00:37:43,599 –> 00:37:48,519
and reopening of border checkpoints with Cambodia. Sandek Thepalae noted
558
00:37:48,519 –> 00:37:51,760
that at times the border was completely closed, only to
559
00:37:51,800 –> 00:37:56,880
be reopened in certain areas. However, the reopened checkpoints permitted
560
00:37:56,920 –> 00:38:01,800
only limited movement, barring general public crosses, while Thailand shifted
561
00:38:01,800 –> 00:38:05,679
the blame to Cambodia for initiating the closure. The Premier
562
00:38:05,760 –> 00:38:10,119
spoke on Thursday, June twenty sixth at the graduation ceremony
563
00:38:10,159 –> 00:38:14,000
at the Police Academy of Cambodia in Kandal Province. The
564
00:38:14,039 –> 00:38:17,039
Premier explained that on the twenty fourth of June twenty
565
00:38:17,119 –> 00:38:20,679
twenty five, the Thai Prime Minister publicly announced a full
566
00:38:20,719 –> 00:38:25,199
border closure with Cambodia, citing the United Nations reports alleging
567
00:38:25,239 –> 00:38:29,800
that Cambodia was a hub for online criminal activity. Exceptions
568
00:38:29,800 –> 00:38:33,440
were made only for students and critically ill patients. Thai
569
00:38:33,480 –> 00:38:37,239
military forces began implementing the closure on that same day,
570
00:38:37,719 –> 00:38:42,039
Yet later in the evening, the spokesperson for Thailand’s Ministry
571
00:38:42,039 –> 00:38:45,159
of Foreign Affairs came forward stating that Thailand had not
572
00:38:45,239 –> 00:38:49,199
officially closed its borders. Then, on the morning of the
573
00:38:49,239 –> 00:38:53,159
twenty fifth of June, Thai military personnel reopened some border
574
00:38:53,199 –> 00:38:56,639
gates for the purpose of taking photos, though the restrictions
575
00:38:56,639 –> 00:39:00,679
on cross border travel remained in effect. Cambodia does not
576
00:39:00,760 –> 00:39:05,039
play such covered games. If we act, we take responsibility.
577
00:39:05,440 –> 00:39:09,760
We already made our stance clear. If you Thailand close
578
00:39:09,800 –> 00:39:13,280
the border, we will close it indefinitely until you officially
579
00:39:13,320 –> 00:39:17,639
reopen it. If we continue to react to your inconsistent moves,
580
00:39:18,039 –> 00:39:21,519
then we will never know when this will end. The premier, underscored.
581
00:39:22,320 –> 00:39:26,119
Sandek thepad reaffirmed that he is currently awaiting individuals in
582
00:39:26,199 –> 00:39:29,239
Thailand who will hold genuine power and adopt a clear
583
00:39:29,320 –> 00:39:33,280
and consistent stance with whom Cambodia can reliably engage in
584
00:39:33,320 –> 00:39:36,599
good faith in order to seek joint solutions that benefit
585
00:39:36,639 –> 00:39:40,840
both nations and their peoples. A Malaysia based news media,
586
00:39:41,199 –> 00:39:45,920
The Star, reported that Malaysia will continue engaging Cambodia and
587
00:39:45,960 –> 00:39:49,559
Thailand to achieve a ceasefire in the ongoing border clashes,
588
00:39:49,960 –> 00:39:53,920
says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, the Prime Minister of Malaysia.
589
00:39:54,679 –> 00:39:57,920
The Prime Minister said that although both leaders had initially
590
00:39:57,960 –> 00:40:01,280
agreed to a cease fire, fighting still persisted along the
591
00:40:01,280 –> 00:40:05,679
disputed border. Anwar said he has told Foreign Minister Datuk
592
00:40:05,760 –> 00:40:09,840
Seri Mohammad Hassan to contact his Tie and Cambodian counterparts
593
00:40:09,840 –> 00:40:13,840
for talks. Maybe I will directly contact him to at
594
00:40:13,920 –> 00:40:17,719
least stop the shooting and continue the negotiations, said Anwar.
595
00:40:18,440 –> 00:40:21,639
Anhwas said that during his initial call to the two leaders,
596
00:40:22,039 –> 00:40:25,840
they had thanked him for facilitating talks. Even though they
597
00:40:25,880 –> 00:40:28,599
agreed to it, there is still shooting at the border,
598
00:40:28,840 –> 00:40:34,079
added Anwar. Anhwar on Friday, July twenty fifth, stated that
599
00:40:34,159 –> 00:40:37,480
Thailand and Cambodia had agreed to a cease fire, but
600
00:40:37,639 –> 00:40:40,800
requested some time as their troops were already stationed at
601
00:40:40,800 –> 00:40:44,480
the border and needed time to withdraw. Both countries have
602
00:40:44,559 –> 00:40:47,559
accused each other of starting the military clashes and have
603
00:40:47,679 –> 00:40:53,360
downgraded the diplomatic relations since Wednesday, July twenty third. Tensions
604
00:40:53,400 –> 00:40:58,159
between Thailand and Cambodia have been escalating since May twenty eighth,
605
00:40:58,519 –> 00:41:01,519
following a deadly incident in the Pria Vhre area that
606
00:41:01,559 –> 00:41:05,519
claimed the life of a Cambodian soldier. The two countries
607
00:41:05,559 –> 00:41:08,639
have been at odds for decades over various under marketed
608
00:41:08,679 –> 00:41:12,239
points along their eight hundred and seventeen kilometers long border.
609
00:41:13,039 –> 00:41:17,079
United States U S. President Donald Trump, who is currently
610
00:41:17,119 –> 00:41:20,360
in Scotland, said while at a golf course on Saturday,
611
00:41:20,400 –> 00:41:23,480
that he just spoke to the Prime Minister of Cambodia
612
00:41:23,880 –> 00:41:27,599
relative to stopping the war with Thailand. I am calling
613
00:41:27,639 –> 00:41:31,719
the acting Prime Minister of Thailand right now to likewise
614
00:41:31,719 –> 00:41:34,599
request a cease fire and end to the war which
615
00:41:34,639 –> 00:41:39,360
is currently raging. We happen to be, by coincidence, currently
616
00:41:39,400 –> 00:41:42,440
dealing on trade with both countries, but do not want
617
00:41:42,480 –> 00:41:45,719
to make any deal with either country if they are fighting,
618
00:41:46,079 –> 00:41:49,480
and I have told them so. The call with Thailand
619
00:41:49,599 –> 00:41:53,480
is being made momentarily. The call with Cambodia has ended,
620
00:41:53,800 –> 00:41:56,960
but expect to call back regarding war stoppage and cease
621
00:41:57,000 –> 00:42:00,360
fire based on what Thailand has to say. I am
622
00:42:00,440 –> 00:42:04,519
trying to simplify a complex situation. Many people are being
623
00:42:04,599 –> 00:42:07,480
killed in this war, but it very much reminds me
624
00:42:07,559 –> 00:42:11,000
of the conflict between Pakistan and India, which was brought
625
00:42:11,039 –> 00:42:16,239
to a successful halt. Prime Minister of Thailand Python Tan Shinawat,
626
00:42:16,519 –> 00:42:19,880
who is currently on suspension, in a press statement, said
627
00:42:19,920 –> 00:42:23,159
that I would like to emphasize and reaffirm the government’s
628
00:42:23,159 –> 00:42:27,480
statement that Cambodia’s actions constitute a severe war crime in
629
00:42:27,559 –> 00:42:31,480
violation of peaceful principles under the framework of international law
630
00:42:31,559 –> 00:42:36,519
and the humanitarian principles that Thailand has consistently upheld. The
631
00:42:36,639 –> 00:42:40,079
escalation of violence is something the government does not desire
632
00:42:40,119 –> 00:42:44,000
and has made every effort to prevent. However, when the
633
00:42:44,039 –> 00:42:48,679
opposing side initiated firing first, it became necessary to respond
634
00:42:48,760 –> 00:42:52,800
decisively and appropriately. Although I am unable to perform my
635
00:42:52,960 –> 00:42:56,599
duties in person, I have been closely monitoring the situation
636
00:42:56,719 –> 00:43:01,400
and receiving reports, doing everything within my capacity. I wish
637
00:43:01,480 –> 00:43:04,679
to send my encouragement and concern to all officials and
638
00:43:04,719 –> 00:43:08,800
fellow citizens along the border. I believe that every mechanism
639
00:43:08,840 –> 00:43:11,480
of the government is fully prepared to support the work
640
00:43:11,519 –> 00:43:14,679
of security forces and care for our fellow citizens to
641
00:43:14,760 –> 00:43:18,559
the fullest extent. This includes on site visits by the
642
00:43:18,599 –> 00:43:22,400
Cabinet and the establishment of compensation guidelines for those who
643
00:43:22,440 –> 00:43:26,000
have lost their lives or been injured. At the same time,
644
00:43:26,400 –> 00:43:29,639
the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has utilized every channel of
645
00:43:29,639 –> 00:43:33,960
communication with the international community to clarify the facts regarding
646
00:43:34,000 –> 00:43:36,719
the cause of the conflict, which stems from the Thai
647
00:43:36,840 –> 00:43:40,800
government’s efforts to crack down on call center crimes, dismantling
648
00:43:40,800 –> 00:43:44,800
a network of immense financial interests linked to influential groups
649
00:43:44,800 –> 00:43:48,639
in Cambodia. This is to protect Thai citizens and those
650
00:43:48,679 –> 00:43:52,639
of many other countries affected by this operation. I believe
651
00:43:52,679 –> 00:43:56,079
this may be the primary reason for Cambodia’s anger, or
652
00:43:56,119 –> 00:44:00,880
perhaps not. Additionally, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has presented
653
00:44:00,920 –> 00:44:07,280
evidence of Cambodia’s unjust actions, including violations of treaties, international law,
654
00:44:07,599 –> 00:44:11,480
human rights principles, and severe in humanity, such as the
655
00:44:11,519 –> 00:44:16,000
illicit planting of land mines, initiating attacks, and targeting civilian
656
00:44:16,079 –> 00:44:19,639
sites such as hospitals and homes, resulting in numerous Thai
657
00:44:19,800 –> 00:44:24,199
casualties and injuries. These points have been raised on international
658
00:44:24,239 –> 00:44:28,519
platforms as well. In this situation, Thai people must unite
659
00:44:28,519 –> 00:44:31,760
and stand together as one. We will not yield to
660
00:44:31,760 –> 00:44:35,320
such despicable tactics. And nothing can overcome the unity of
661
00:44:35,360 –> 00:44:39,719
the Thai people. Regarding proposals from various countries to end
662
00:44:39,719 –> 00:44:42,840
the violence. I believe the government is ready to listen,
663
00:44:43,159 –> 00:44:46,159
but the key lies in the attitude and sincerity which
664
00:44:46,559 –> 00:44:49,880
so far we have not seen from Cambodia in this matter.
665
00:44:50,639 –> 00:44:53,960
On behalf of the Ministry of Culture, I express my
666
00:44:54,079 –> 00:44:58,239
boundless gratitude for the gracious compassion of His Majesty the
667
00:44:58,320 –> 00:45:01,400
King and Her Majesty the Queen, who have shown concern
668
00:45:01,480 –> 00:45:04,679
for the military personnel and citizens in the Thai Cambodia
669
00:45:04,719 –> 00:45:09,199
border provinces. Their majesties have graciously taken all those who
670
00:45:09,320 –> 00:45:11,840
lost their lives or were injured in the unrest in
671
00:45:11,880 –> 00:45:15,639
these areas under their royal patronage, bringing immense joy and
672
00:45:15,719 –> 00:45:18,800
gratitude to the families of the deceased and injured, as
673
00:45:18,840 –> 00:45:22,360
well as to tie subjects across the country. Under the
674
00:45:22,400 –> 00:45:25,639
mission of the Ministry of Culture, I have urgently ordered
675
00:45:25,719 –> 00:45:31,039
two key tasks. One ceremonial funerals granted by Royal decree.
676
00:45:31,280 –> 00:45:35,800
As the agency responsible for conducting funerals granted by Royal decree,
677
00:45:36,000 –> 00:45:38,360
we will carry out the tasks in accordance with the
678
00:45:38,440 –> 00:45:41,719
Royal instructions from the Bureau of the Royal Household with
679
00:45:41,840 –> 00:45:46,760
utmost dignity and adherence to traditional royal customs. Two other
680
00:45:46,840 –> 00:45:50,280
assigned support missions from the provinces, such as caring for
681
00:45:50,320 –> 00:45:55,360
the injured, providing essential supplies and necessities, collaborating with relevant
682
00:45:55,400 –> 00:45:59,639
agencies to provide psychological support for those affected, and deploying
683
00:45:59,639 –> 00:46:03,960
personnel to assess damages in accordance with the Ministry’s responsibilities
684
00:46:04,239 –> 00:46:07,760
such as historical sites in the area to evaluate damage
685
00:46:07,800 –> 00:46:12,280
and secure funding for restoration and repairs. Moving forward, First
686
00:46:12,320 –> 00:46:15,920
and foremost, I would like to reiterate Deputy Prime Minister
687
00:46:16,039 –> 00:46:20,320
Funtham’s yesterday’s statement that cambodia act of aggression constitutes a
688
00:46:20,360 –> 00:46:23,960
grave war crime that violates the principles of peaceful resolution
689
00:46:24,199 –> 00:46:30,719
under international law and humanitarian principles which Thailand has always upheld. However,
690
00:46:31,119 –> 00:46:34,159
the government does not condone violence and has made every
691
00:46:34,199 –> 00:46:38,239
effort to avoid it, but when the Cambodian side initiates
692
00:46:38,280 –> 00:46:40,960
the use of arms, it is necessary for us to
693
00:46:41,000 –> 00:46:46,000
response in an appropriate manner. Prime Minister of Cambodia Samdek
694
00:46:46,079 –> 00:46:50,719
Mohaborva thopad hun Mane says while clarifying Cambodia’s stance on
695
00:46:50,800 –> 00:46:54,639
the cease fire proposed by Anwar Ibrahim, the Prime Minister
696
00:46:54,719 –> 00:46:57,840
of Malaysia and rotating Chair of A Zian that, given
697
00:46:57,960 –> 00:47:02,159
some unclear reporting in various inter national news outlets regarding
698
00:47:02,239 –> 00:47:07,360
Cambodia’s position on the ceasefire proposed by His Excellency Awar Ibrahim,
699
00:47:07,599 –> 00:47:10,800
Prime Minister of Malaysia and the Rotating at Zien Chair,
700
00:47:11,280 –> 00:47:15,519
I am obliged to clarify as follows. Yesterday evening on
701
00:47:15,639 –> 00:47:19,360
the twenty fourth of July twenty twenty five, his Excellency
702
00:47:19,400 –> 00:47:22,960
and Wai Ibrahim, Prime Minister of Malaysia the Rotating a
703
00:47:23,079 –> 00:47:26,719
Zien Chair, requested a phone conversation with me to discuss
704
00:47:26,760 –> 00:47:30,239
the fighting between the Cambodian and Thai militaries along the border.
705
00:47:30,960 –> 00:47:34,079
He expressed his concern over the conflict and his desire
706
00:47:34,119 –> 00:47:37,039
for an immediate ceasefire to pave way for a resolution
707
00:47:37,199 –> 00:47:40,480
between the two sides. I made it clear to his
708
00:47:40,559 –> 00:47:44,480
Excellency and Wi Ibrahim that Cambodia agreed with his proposal
709
00:47:44,559 –> 00:47:48,159
for a ceasefire because Cambodia did not initiate this fighting.
710
00:47:48,880 –> 00:47:52,199
An initial response I received from his Excellency and Wi
711
00:47:52,280 –> 00:47:56,599
Ibrahim after he spoke with His Excellency Fumtham Wechaii, acting
712
00:47:56,679 –> 00:47:59,639
Prime Minister of Thailand, was that the Thai side had
713
00:47:59,639 –> 00:48:02,920
agreed to his proposal for a ceasefire, setting twelve a
714
00:48:03,159 –> 00:48:06,039
m On the twenty fourth of July twenty twenty five
715
00:48:06,159 –> 00:48:10,039
as the time for both sides to cease the fighting. However,
716
00:48:10,400 –> 00:48:13,280
it is regrettable that just over an hour later, the
717
00:48:13,360 –> 00:48:16,199
Thai side informed that they had reversed their position from
718
00:48:16,239 –> 00:48:18,880
agreeing to the ceasefire at twelve a m. On the
719
00:48:18,920 –> 00:48:22,480
twenty fourth of July twenty twenty five to not agreeing
720
00:48:22,519 –> 00:48:26,639
and waiting for a later date. His Excellency Annwa Ibrahim
721
00:48:26,719 –> 00:48:30,159
is well aware of this situation. Therefore, the key to
722
00:48:30,280 –> 00:48:34,280
resolving the current armed conflict between Thailand and Cambodia is
723
00:48:34,280 –> 00:48:36,880
the genuine willingness of the Thai side to accept a
724
00:48:36,920 –> 00:48:40,320
cease fire, which is the first step towards finding further
725
00:48:40,400 –> 00:48:44,480
solutions between the two countries. Even though there is currently
726
00:48:44,559 –> 00:48:47,960
fighting between the Cambodian and Thai armies at the border.
727
00:48:48,119 –> 00:48:51,599
I appealed to all Cambodian citizens to maintain their morality
728
00:48:51,639 –> 00:48:55,800
and dignity and to avoid discrimination or any actions that
729
00:48:55,840 –> 00:48:59,719
could affect the Royal Thai Embassy in Cambodia, Thai companies,
730
00:49:00,079 –> 00:49:04,079
and Thai citizens living in Cambodia. For Cambodian citizens who
731
00:49:04,079 –> 00:49:07,280
are living, working or studying in Thailand and may be
732
00:49:07,400 –> 00:49:11,079
facing pressure from discrimination and wish to return to Cambodia,
733
00:49:11,400 –> 00:49:14,559
please come back to our country. If you need assistance,
734
00:49:14,920 –> 00:49:18,360
please contact the Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Bangkok or
735
00:49:18,400 –> 00:49:22,320
the Consulate General of Cambodia in Essa Caio Province in Thailand.
736
00:49:22,960 –> 00:49:26,719
Sincere thanks to our Cambodian compatriots for coming together in
737
00:49:26,840 –> 00:49:30,360
large numbers for the blood donation responding to the heartfelt
738

In addition, nine thousand, three hundred and thirty six individuals
742
00:49:45,679 –> 00:49:48,679
registered via QR code to be able to donate later.
743
00:49:49,280 –> 00:49:53,320
These results demonstrate the humanitarian spirit and solidarity of the
744
00:49:53,360 –> 00:49:57,199
Cambodian people, showing strong support for the potential needs of
745
