13 Sept 11:46Key points summarised by AI
Foreign Minister Don Pramudwinai stated Thailand will not hastily condemn Russia over its invasion of Ukraine, believing such action would not improve the situation.
Thailand plans to closely monitor the conflict, potentially adjusting its policy to be more tangible and actively ease the situation, rather than merely issuing condemnations.
Don highlighted the complex geopolitical landscape and potential economic repercussions, such as rising energy prices and inflation, stressing the importance of national strength in international affairs.
Twenty-five ambassadors based in Thailand urged the nation to condemn Russia's invasion and support the upcoming UN General Assembly resolution, citing violations of the UN Charter.
