Thailand seals border with Cambodia after military clashes kill at least 12
- rinn7e 1y agoI don't know about everyone view on this conflict but this is my opinion. Cambodia is a smaller country, less developed, and less military capability. Also this country just get out of civil wars 50 years ago. I don't think Cambodia has any reason to start this war.
- jksflkjl3jk3 1y agoMy understanding is that the current governments of both Cambodia and Thailand are losing support because of economic and other problems and are using this conflict to distract from their domestic issues and shore up support.
- scottydelta 1y ago> Cambodia on Friday accused Thailand of using banned cluster munitions at a border area within Cambodian territory, in what it said was a repeat of "brutal tactics" Thailand employed during clashes in 2011. > Thailand had admitted to using cluster bombs in 2011, but has not responded to these latest allegations. I remember reading about this back then and how Thailand denied it in 2011 only to change stance when independent agencies verified it.
