Thai army chief Gen Prayuth Chan- ocha on Monday denied reports saying that Thai and Cambodian troops have agreed to withdraw their troops from the border areas surrounding the disputed ancient Preah Vihear temple.
He said it was just an adjustment of force deployment along the border near the Hindu temple in a bid to avoid confrontation and this followed Cambodia's demilitarization.
"It was only an adjustment and there was no agreement between both countries. The military is authorized to force adjustment but troop withdrawal rests with the government," the army chief said before leaving to the neighboring Cambodia.
