After a land mine near the Thai–Cambodian border wounded four Thai soldiers in Sisaket province, Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul declared the U.S.-brokered ceasefire void and said he “no longer care[s]” about U.S. tariff-linked trade negotiations, insisting trade talks will proceed separately from security talks. The move undercuts President Trump's claim that he "stopped a war" by using tariff threats to preserve the truce — Cambodia and Thailand have exchanged competing accounts of recent cross-border shootings — and analysts warn the breakdown could push Bangkok closer to China.
