Thailand asserts its unwavering commitment to protecting maritime sovereignty and rights, guided by international law, during UNCLOS conciliation talks with Cambodia.

Thailand criticizes Cambodia for selectively applying international law, making unfounded accusations, and undermining trust through various actions.
The termination of the 2001 MOU, due to a lack of progress, prompted Thailand to seek a new negotiation path under UNCLOS.
Thailand defines the conciliation scope strictly to maritime boundary delimitation in the Gulf of Thailand, excluding land sovereignty and rejecting Cambodia's 1972 continental shelf claim.
