Trump Intervenes to Stop Fighting Between Cambodia and Thailand

While the world watched in silence as conflict erupted once again on the Southeast Asian border, President Donald Trump took swift, decisive action bringing Cambodia and Thailand back to the table and restoring peace in less than 24 hours.

Early Sunday, Trump announced via Truth Social that fighting between the two nations would “stop momentarily” and that both sides had agreed to honor the terms of a previously negotiated treaty. That agreement, brokered in July 2025 under heavy U.S. trade pressure and facilitated by Malaysia, was quickly renewed following Trump’s intervention.

“It was FAST & DECISIVE, as all of these situations should be!” Trump wrote.

This latest diplomatic success follows eight major conflicts Trump claims to have helped resolve since returning to office a stark contrast to the Biden administration’s track record of weakness and endless escalation abroad.

Key details of the new ceasefire:

• Signed Saturday by defense ministers from both countries at a shared border checkpoint

• Effective immediately, halting military movements and violations of each other’s airspace

• Requires Thailand to return 18 Cambodian soldiers held in violation of the original peace deal once the ceasefire holds for 72 hours

Once again, Trump emphasized that America not the United Nations was at the center of global conflict resolution.

“Perhaps the United States has become the REAL United Nations,” he stated bluntly, calling out the global body for being “of very little assistance or help” in ongoing crises like Russia’s war in Ukraine.

This isn’t new for Trump it's the blueprint he’s followed from day one. Whether it was Abraham Accords in the Middle East, pressure on NATO to start paying their fair share, or stopping North Korea’s provocations, Trump’s approach has always been simple: peace through strength and leverage. No drawn-out summits, no endless committee meetings just results.

Meanwhile, Biden’s era of aimless diplomacy and weakness led to nothing but chaos: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, emboldened regimes in Iran and China, and foreign partners looking elsewhere for leadership. Under Biden, American influence waned. Under Trump, it’s back.

Cambodia’s Tea Seiha and Thailand’s Nattaphon Narkphanit may have signed the document, but it was the White House Trump’s White House that made it happen.

While critics obsess over Trump’s style, the results speak for themselves: peace restored, prisoners to be returned, and two nations back from the brink without a single shot fired by American forces.

The world is watching and once again, it's Donald J. Trump leading from the front.
