ट्रंप व्यापार धमकियों का लाभ उठाते हुए थाईलैंड-कम्बोडिया युद्धविराम की समझौता करने में सक्षम हुए, जिससे वैश्विक बहस प्रारंभ हुई।

A sudden ceasefire between Thailand and Cambodia has been brokered with direct intervention from U.S. President Donald Trump, who used the threat of steep tariffs and the promise of renewed trade deals to pressure both sides into peace. Trump has publicly claimed credit for the diplomatic breakthrough, touting himself as a 'President of Peace' and instructing his team to restart trade negotiations with both countries. The move has drawn both praise and criticism, with some Southeast Asian officials lauding the peace, while others warn against using economic leverage to resolve military conflicts. The ceasefire follows a deadly five-day border conflict that left dozens dead and displaced hundreds of thousands. Analysts say the U.S.-brokered truce could reshape trade and investment dynamics in Southeast Asia, but also raises concerns about the precedent of linking peace to trade threats.
