U.S. President Donald Trump claims he helped stop tensions between Thailand and Cambodia by threatening to block U.S. trade deals. He compared the situation to his past involvement in easing India-Pakistan conflict, saying he called both Southeast Asian leaders and warned that no trade would happen unless peace was restored. Trump stated, “By the time I got off, I think they want to settle now.” He said using trade to stop wars is an honor, suggesting that economic leverage can be a powerful diplomatic tool when applied decisively.

Clashes between Thailand and Cambodia have entered their fourth day, despite U.S. President Trump’s warnings to halt the conflict. Over 30 people, including civilians, have been killed as fighting intensifies, with reports of Thailand using cluster bombs. Cambodia plans to drag Thailand to the UN over war crimes allegations. In a surprising diplomatic shift, both countries have agreed to let Malaysia mediate the crisis, sidelining the U.S. This move signals a regional realignment as Washington’s influence is challenged in Southeast Asia.
During a visit to Scotland, Donald Trump revealed he had spoken with the leaders of Thailand and Cambodia, urging an immediate ceasefire amid rising border tensions. Trump warned both governments that continued conflict would halt any future U.S. trade deals. Under U.S. pressure, Cambodian and Thai leaders agreed to meet for peace talks. As the U.S. signals readiness to mediate, the region braces for possible diplomatic and economic fallout if hostilities continue.

Fierce clashes erupted again between Thailand and Cambodia near the disputed Ta Kwai temple, marking the deadliest border conflict in over a decade. At least 33 people have died, including civilians, just hours after Thailand claimed a ceasefire had been “agreed in principle.” Trump, attempting to play peacemaker, said on Truth Social he spoke with Cambodian PM Hun Manet and planned to call Thailand’s acting leader.
However, violence surged again—casting doubt on his claims. Mass evacuations have followed: over 131,000 displaced in Thailand and 37,600 in Cambodia. The UN has expressed deep concern and offered to mediate. The roots of the clash lie in decades-old disputes over temple territories. Reports suggest both sides may have used banned cluster munitions. The crisis has drawn global attention and sparked fears of full-scale war in Southeast Asia.

In a bold diplomatic and military move, India hosted Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. with full state honours—while simultaneously dispatching warships for joint patrols in the South China Sea. INS Delhi, INS Shakti and INS Kiltan sailed alongside Philippine vessels inside Manila’s exclusive economic zone, triggering a subtle yet unmistakable warning to China. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs reaffirmed support for freedom of navigation, calling the waters part of the “global commons.”
The joint drill coincided with Marcos’ five-day India visit, where the two nations signed a landmark Strategic Partnership agreement to boost defence, maritime cooperation, disaster relief and cyber security. While India didn’t name China, Beijing’s rebuke of “third-party interference” left little ambiguity. The coordinated political hospitality and military manoeuvres signal India’s rising Indo-Pacific assertiveness and a strategic alignment with one of China’s fiercest regional rivals—firmly placing New Delhi in the emerging anti-China security web across the Indo-Pacific.

Tensions are rising in the South China Sea as China threatens Vietnam over its rapid island-building operations. Hanoi has expanded over 280 hectares across 10 features, adding new docks and a 3,000-meter airstrip on Barque Canada Reef. China views these moves as a direct challenge to its dominance, especially with U.S. backing and the USS Carl Vinson’s return to the region. Analysts warn Vietnam’s projects could rival Beijing’s military stronghold, intensifying fears of a possible clash between China and Vietnam, with Washington closely aligned with Hanoi.
