Trump signs Thailand-Cambodia ceasefire pact at ASEAN summit in Malaysia
United States President Donald Trump has presided over the signing of a ceasefire between Thailand and Cambodia and announced several trade deals on his first visit to Asia since re-entering the White House.
Trump cosigned the ceasefire on Sunday with his Malaysian, Thai and Cambodian counterparts on the sidelines of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit in Kuala Lumpur.
After signing the ceasefire on Sunday, Trump inked separate trade deals with Cambodia, Thailand and Malaysia as well as agreements on critical minerals with Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur.
Trump is on a six-day visit to Asia that is expected to culminate in his first face-to-face meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping since 2019 on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in South Korea on Thursday.
Trump will depart for Japan on Monday, where he will meet newly sworn-in Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi. He will then travel to South Korea on Wednesday.
