Trump declares cease-fire between Thailand and Cambodia again — and says US has become world’s peace-keeperBy Ryan King
Published Dec. 28, 2025
President Trump said Sunday that the fighting between Thailand and Cambodia “will stop momentarily” and boasted that the US has been increasingly taking on the role of the United Nations in peacekeeping.
Thailand and Cambodia signed a ceasefire deal Saturday, but Bangkok was accused of carrying out airstrikes against Phnom Penh earlier that same day, raising questions about the viability of the deal.
“I am pleased to announce that the breakout fighting between Thailand and Cambodia will stop momentarily, and they will go back to living in PEACE, as per our recently agreed to original Treaty,” Trump posted on Truth Social Sunday.
Trump had put trade pressure on both sides to reach a peace deal over the summer, and a ceasefire between the rival countries was brokered in July by Malaysia. That deal was formalized in October during a ceremony Trump attended.
