The US president claims both leaders are ‘doing great’ in talks aimed at mediating the latest flare-up in the ceasefire deal.

WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump said on Friday he thought Thailand and Cambodia were “going to be fine” after holding phone calls with the leaders of the two nations to help mediate the most recent flare-up in the conflict between them.

Thailand this week suspended a US-brokered ceasefire deal and demanded an apology over allegations that Cambodia had laid fresh landmines, which Cambodia denies.

Long-running tensions over a disputed border between the two Southeast Asian nations erupted into five days of fighting in July, when at least 48 people were killed and an estimated 300,000 temporarily displaced, before Trump and Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim brokered the ceasefire.
