Cambodia ex-leader Hun Sen and Thailand’s prime minister make separate visits to tense border areas
- On June 27, 2025, former Cambodian leader Hun Sen and Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra separately visited tense border areas amid ongoing disputes.
- The visits followed a June 15 leaked phone call between Hun Sen and Paetongtarn that intensified political tensions amid a long-standing Thailand-Cambodia border dispute.
- Hun Sen, who stepped down as prime minister in August 2023 but remains powerful, accused Paetongtarn of deception and threatened to expose damaging information about her father, former Thai premier Thaksin Shinawatra.
- Cambodia has mobilized more troops to border areas and imposed economic boycotts on Thailand, while Thailand restricted crossings under Paetongtarn's orders and both sides scheduled a joint committee meeting to discuss tensions.
- The dispute, rooted in undemarcated border points and upheld by past International Court of Justice rulings, keeps political pressure high and raises fears of instability despite calls for dialogue by both governments.
