Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet told Reuters that Thai forces are occupying Cambodian territory despite a peace deal brokered by US President Donald Trump to halt fighting between the two countries that erupted last year. He called on Thailand to allow a joint border commission to begin work on the disputed border. In his first international media interview, Hun Manite praised improving relations with Washington. The Cambodian Prime Minister traveled to Washington to attend a Peace Council meeting this week, and expressed his hope that the Council would play a role in calming the situation on the border, which he described as "fragile" despite the ceasefire.
