Thaksin visited the Thai-Cambodian border area to慰问 frontline soldiers and civilians. Although Thaksin no longer holds any official position, his influence in the political arena is well known. Now, Thaksin relies on the reputation of his father-in-law Puea Tongtan, and as a former Prime Minister of Thailand, his reputation is also quite good, so he has a certain status among the Thai people. At this moment, Thaksin's visit to the front line to comfort the people is inevitable. Previously, Puea Tongtan had already visited the Thai army and urged them to fight bravely.
In fact, the war between Cambodia and Thailand is not only a territorial and resource war between the two countries, but also a conflict and entanglement between the Thaksin family and the Hun Sen family. At this moment, Hun Sen is at the Cambodian battlefield, encouraging the army to fight. Therefore, Thaksin cannot fall behind either; he will also inspect the army, comfort the victims, and ask everyone to withstand the pressure, defeat the opponents, thus gaining an advantageous position in negotiations.
Thaksin and Hun Sen used to be very good friends with deep friendship, but due to a recording incident, they completely broke up, and the families have almost completely cut off relations. No matter how good their relationship was before, once there are interests disputes, breaking up becomes inevitable.
However, the Thaksin family's ability to survive in Thailand is not without reason. The Thaksin family has a very good relationship with the King of Thailand and some real strength. Anyway, Thaksin has visited the front line, showing his responsible side. Thaksin also said that it is not the right time for a ceasefire, and in fact, Thaksin now is obviously in a prime ministerial position, more popular than the acting Prime Minister Pootan.
At this moment, Thailand needs the efforts of Thaksin and Puea Tongtan to defeat the opponents, which is inevitable.
