United Thai Nation party joins Pheu Thai coalition
The United Thai Nation (UTN) party officially announced its decision to join the Pheu Thai-led coalition and support its prime ministerial nominee.
UTN's participation follows Pheu Thai's confirmation that its coalition does not include any party aiming to amend the lèse majesté law, a key condition for UTN's agreement.
This alliance significantly strengthens the Pheu Thai nominee's position, securing at least 314 votes for the upcoming prime ministerial election on August 22nd.
