Joint declaration by the prime minister of the kingdom of Cambodia and the prime minister of the kingdom of Thailand on the outcomes of their meeting in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
The Joint Declaration, signed by the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Cambodia, Hun Manet, and the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Thailand, Anutin Charnvirakul, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on 26 October 2025, reaffirmed their unwavering commitment to peace, security, and the peaceful settlement of disputes. Both nations are firmly committed to refraining from the threat or use of force and respecting international law and the existing international boundary.
A major outcome of the meeting was the signing of the Terms of Reference (TOR) for establishing the ASEAN Observer Team (AOT), comprising personnel from ASEAN Member States to ensure the full and effective implementation of the ceasefire. The leaders also agreed to uphold all agreements reached at the General Border Committee meetings. Critically, the Declaration explicitly highlighted that the meeting was held in the presence of and supported by President Donald J. Trump of the United States of America and Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim of Malaysia, who also served as witnesses to the signing. The two nations specifically acknowledged President Trump’s “significant contributions” to advancing the restoration of productive bilateral relations.
