Phone conversations with both Prime Minister Anwar of Malaysia and President Donald Trump of the United States, to find ways to have a CEASEFIRE

I had phone conversations with both Prime Minister Anwar of Malaysia on Thursday 11 December and last night, 12 December 2025, with President Donald Trump of the United States, to find ways to have a ceasefire and return to the implementation of Kuala Lumpur Joint Declaration between Cambodia and Thailand.

I thanks both leaders for their continuous efforts to achieve a long-lasting peace between Cambodia and Thailand. Cambodia has always been adhering to peaceful means for dispute resolutions, in accordance with the KL Joint Declaration.

Regarding the shooting incident on the afternoon of 7 December 2025, which started this new round of fight between the two countries, I suggested to both leaders that militaries or agencies of United States and Malaysia can use their information gathering capabilities such as satellite imageries recorded during that time as well as for the next twenty four hours after that to verify which side opened fires first. This maybe the easiest and most transparent ways to verify the incident. Cambodia is ready to cooperate in anyway that is needed.
