President Trump Attends Peace Agreement Ceremony Between Cambodia And Thailand
President Trump is a big reason why Thailand and Cambodia are not in an all out ground war with each other.
On Sunday, President Trump attended the official peace agreement ceremony between Cambodia and Thailand held in Malaysia.
Trump is in the region to participate in the ASEAN Summit.
The 47th President’s visit to the ASEAN Summit marks the first time a U.S. President attended the summit since Barrack Obama did in 2016 however Trump did attend ASEAN meetings in 2017.
The Hill reported more in-depth on the peace agreement signing ceremony that featured Trump:
President Trump on Sunday attended a ceremony to formalize a peace agreement between Thailand and Cambodia to put to rest a border dispute, giving the president a platform to bolster his image as a global peacemaker.
“On behalf of the U.S., I’m proud to help settle this conflict and forge a future for the region,” Trump said at the ceremony in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where he was attending meetings for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summit.
Trump was joined by Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet and Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul for the event, which formalized an agreement the U.S. president helped broker earlier this year. Malaysia also played a central role in mediating the conflict between Thailand and Cambodia.
The agreement covers issues that include withdrawing heavy weapons from the border of the two countries and new guidelines to address accusations of encroachment at the boundary. The agreement also calls for Thailand to release 18 detained Cambodian soldiers.
Trump has bragged about settling the conflict between Thailand and Cambodia as one of several clashes he takes credit for ending, though other regional mediators have often been involved. Trump has pointed to his role in helping to end strife between India and Pakistan, Armenia and Azerbaijan, Israel and Iran and others.
The Cambodian prime minister said he would nominate Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, something the country had said it would do in August.

President Trump blasted the United Nations for not being more involved in ending wars as he signed peace and trade deals Sunday with the leaders of Cambodia, Thailand and Malaysia — with the three nations pledging to boost US economic ties in exchange for lower tariffs.
Trump, 79, said the peace accord formalizing a truce he brokered between Cambodia and Thailand in July may save “millions of lives” in the two Southeast Asian nations, which were represented by their prime ministers at the ceremony in the Malaysian capital.
“Millions of people are alive today because of this peace treaty,” Trump declared.
