Speaking to reporters here after inspecting the situation along the Thai-Cambodian border at the northeastern province of Surin after clashes between troops of the two neighbours erupted Friday, Mr Kasit said the fighting proved that Cambodia would not stop and refused to accept Thailand’s proposal to hold bilateral talks.
The foreign minister said that Thailand must therefore review its overall policy regarding Cambodia.
Mr Kasit said he would meet with Defence Minister Gen Prawit when the general returns from Surin to review policy regarding Thai-Cambodian relations as the lives of the 30,000 people who have been displaced must take top priority.
“Cambodia has deliberately launched attacks against us for many days and that went against [continued] amicable relations. Other members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) should be notified of Cambodia’s hostile action.” he said.
