The joint statement reiterated both sides’ commitment to implementing the ceasefire agreement and working towards peace, stability and security along the border. Gen Natthaphon said that Cambodia had agreed to all four points of the agreement discussed in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in October. On Friday, Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul reaffirmed that Thailand would accept a 72-hour ceasefire but would not agree to resume border negotiations at positions held before the latest clashes, insisting that Thailand “cannot retreat” from secured areas. The agreement, ‌signed ‍by the Thai and Cambodian defence ministers, ​ended 20 days of fighting that has killed at least 101 people and displaced more than half a million on both sides.
