internationalism Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 At 3 pm Monday Anutin has cancelled vax requirements for entering thailand. It sounds as it was done immediately after that very meeting. The USA, as well as some european countries and India, have recently requested vax certificates from Chinese entering their countries. So Anutin move can be interpreted as pro-china and against policies of those countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Well, the US foreign policy was always an "interesting" subject. In order to keep the balance, the poor envoy will have to visit ALL other party head offices, spend an hour and do official small talk. Given the Thai clutter of parties it will keep the primus-inter-pares of the local US desk busy into Songkran, me thinks ....... keep up the good work Anutin; pretty much a pictoral endorsement of Bhumchai party programmes by the sitting US Ambassador - well done!
