Knewz.com is reporting that tensions between Cambodia and Thailand have escalated after renewed fighting along their disputed border claimed the life of a Thai soldier, reportedly due to a landmine. The incident has heightened regional concerns, drawing international attention to a decades-long territorial dispute.

In response to the escalating conflict, President Donald Trump successfully called for an immediate ceasefire, a move that prompted Cambodia to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize, marking his third nomination.

Trump wrote, “They have agreed to immediately meet and quickly work out a Ceasefire and, ultimately, PEACE! It was an Honor to deal with both Countries. They have a long and storied History and Culture. They will hopefully get along for many years to come.”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio reported on the U.S.-mediated peace progress, with Deputy Prime Minister of Cambodia Sun Chanthol praising Trump. Cambodia’s nomination adds to Trump’s prior Nobel Peace Prize considerations from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Pakistan.
