President Donald Trump has said Thai and Cambodian leaders have agreed to renew a truce after days of deadly clashes had threatened to undo a ceasefire the US administration had helped broker earlier this year.

Former President Donald Trump announced the renewal of a ceasefire agreement via social media after discussions with Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump stated, “They have agreed to CEASE all shooting effective this evening and return to the original Peace Accord established with my involvement, alongside the esteemed Prime Minister of Malaysia, Anwar Ibrahim.”

Trump has frequently boasted about his role in resolving eight international conflicts, including the dispute between Thailand and Cambodia, showcasing what he claims to be his exceptional negotiation skills since reclaiming office in January.

He has also expressed a strong desire to be considered for a Nobel Peace Prize.

Speaking to reporters on Friday, Trump praised his administration’s efforts to curb the resurgence of hostilities, describing it as “a very good job.”

“I believe we managed to resolve the situation today,” Trump commented while hosting the 1980 U.S. men’s hockey team at the Oval Office.

“So Thailand and Cambodia is in good shape.”

Another ceasefire that Trump takes credit for working out, between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda, is also under strain — just after the leaders of the African nations traveled to Washington to sign a peace deal.

A joint statement released by the International Contact Group for the Great Lakes expressed “profound concern” over the situation in Congo’s South Kivu region, where new deadly violence blamed on the Rwandan-backed M23 militia group has exploded in recent days.

The Great Lakes contact group — which includes Belgium, Britain, Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the United States and the European Union — has urged all sides “to uphold their commitments” under the deal signed last week and “immediately de-escalate the situation.”

And Trump’s internationally endorsed plan to end the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza is still not finalised and in limbo, with sporadic fighting continuing while a critical second phase remains a work in progress.
