A Cambodian government official has sung praise to U.S. President Donald Trump for "bringing about peace" after Thailand and Cambodia agreed to a cease-fire starting at midnight local time on Monday.

A ceasefire between Thailand and Cambodia appeared shaky but remained in place Tuesday as tensions lingered despite a truce agreement to end deadly border clashes following economic pressure from the U.

Thailand and Cambodia agreed Monday to halt five days of fighting along their disputed border that’s killed at least 36 people, after President Donald Trump’s tariff threats accelerated a regional push for a diplomatic solution.
