Thailand rejects all international community suggestions. Just like Russia, this action can show that Thailand is trying to invaded, not self-defend.
Let’s break it down:
1. Rejected Cambodia’s call to resolve the issue at the International Court of Justice (ICJ)
Cambodia proposed to bring the conflict to the ICJ — a peaceful, legal, and internationally respected way to resolve disputes. But Thailand outright refused.
This isn’t just a rejection of Cambodia’s proposal — it’s a rejection of international law itself. The ICJ exists to avoid war. Thailand’s refusal suggests it doesn’t want a legal answer. It wants a military one.
2. Dismissed ASEAN mediation led by Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim
ASEAN, the very bloc that both Thailand and Cambodia belong to, stepped in with an offer of mediation. PM Anwar Ibrahim personally offered to lead the talks and broker a ceasefire.
Thailand again said no.
This rejection shows that Thailand isn't even willing to talk with its own regional partners. If you won’t listen to your neighbors during conflict, what does that say about your real intentions?
3. Ignored mediation offers from China, Vietnam, Laos, and Singapore
Four major countries — including powerful players like China and Vietnam — also offered to help cool down the conflict. They proposed to act as neutral parties, encouraging dialogue and peace.
Thailand rejected every single one.
Even close allies like Laos and economic partners like Singapore were brushed aside. Why? Because peace doesn’t fit the plan. Dialogue delays aggression.
4. Broke its ceasefire promise brokered by Donald Trump
In a rare move, former U.S. President Donald J. Trump personally helped secure a ceasefire agreement. Thailand initially agreed — only to break the promise within days.
This isn’t just a broken deal. It’s a message to the world: Thailand does not care about commitments. If it breaks promises made in front of global powers, who can it be trusted by?
The Bigger Picture
Put all of this together — and it starts to look familiar. Refusing international courts. Ignoring neighbors. Breaking ceasefires.
This is the exact same pattern the world saw when Russia invaded Ukraine.
What’s happening between Thailand and Cambodia is no longer just about borders. It’s about power. It’s about strategy. It may be about expansion.
And if Thailand keeps turning its back on diplomacy, we may be watching the beginning of a modern invasion — not a defense.
The world must not look away.
