Thailand does not have the balls to arrest Putin

not while he has money to avoid it.

If it leads to a us-backed-coup, perhaps we won't have the new tax law introduced.

More than a few dollars. Russia is among the largest trading partner with Thailand with exports of 1.02 B USD and large investments in real estate, business and tourist revenues that will grow to 10 B. Sretha is doing what best for Thailand notwithstanding Putin is a evil pariah and a human rights abuser. 

Logic will do you no good here, youre competing with long term propaganda.

Ought to see if any of those Hamas or Ali Queda fellas are free for lunch 😉

It is bewildering how western countries have not sanctioned Thailand, they obviously support the war with Ukraine, sitting on the fence just doesn't cut it, especially the usa, are they aware of what is going on?,

Thailand is a small trading nation dependent on relationship with major powers. Neutrality and non-alignment are foreign policies adopted by all Asean countries. 

Thailand is a signatory of the Hague Convention and as such are committed to carrying out the arrest warrant against Putin for war crimes. So were South Africa of course. If countries have no intention of carrying out their responsibilities unless it benefits them, then why sign the festering document in the first place?

[Dave1954]

I thought the government policy was to keep criminals out of Thailand they will be giving Hamas 90 day visas' next

I lived in Moscow for 3 months and never met a single Russian who didn’t like Putin. I expected grey concrete and soldiers with AK 47s everywhere and never saw one, just like I didn’t see endless tent cities and drugged out homeless so prevalent in the USA. The coming demise of the US dollar spells end of empire time for the Good Ol US of A and maybe quite a few other so called western nations. Time to stop watching the garbage pumped out by the likes of CNN. 
Maybe, just maybe, this Sretta guy is shoring up a more secure future for Thailand in the grand scheme of things.

What is the other choice , the West who are master manipulators who commit genocide murdering civilians and children then claiming " collateral damage" , Putin is a beacon of humanity compared to them .

Its all about tradeoffs otherwise the likes of Bush, Nixon and Kissinger etc would have ended up behind bars for their major war crimes/genocide.

Hey you cant go around spouting the truth like that, which side are you on lol!

That should drop the tourist numbers ! 

Having that scumbag posted globally, swanning around in Phuket.

Hope he rents a motorcycle fatality rate very high .

Actually, calling that "person" a president is not correct at all. All the legal and political terms cannot apply to Russia. Everything was flushed down the toilet there and the concepts were altered. That person is a criminal thug who usurped the power with his cronies. Russia is not a state in legal terms, but the territory run by that clique. And Russian people with their mentality of "slaves" coming from the Golden Horde times, are happy to have those thugs above them... The West just doesn't understand how deep the degradation went there in all layers of society and in all institutes....

Moscow is not Russia at all... Having seen Moscow, you haven't seen the real Russia. Toilets are outside, no running water, the only water pump for the whole street and disastrous living conditions for the majority of people outside of Moscow... Shut down schools, hospitals with no teachers or doctors... The list is neverending... I was born in the USSR and grew up in Siberia, so I know everything from the inside...

I think Ayatollah Khamane'i of Iran would not mind a mango smoothie and a massage while lounging at a resort in Phuket.  

he wears his beach towel waiting for the moment.

Thai PM should have follow European delegates and walk away that would have been a good slap in the face (if he still has some) for Putin

Maybe the next move will be to invite the leader of Hamas!

Would you care to read the newsletter headline again?

Putin accepts Srettha’s invitation to visit Thailand

But, of course, the article says no such thing. More of what we are not allowed to call what it is, without risking 'a holiday' from the site.

[Jack100]

I think there is some King in Africa who has twenty wives who would like an  invite to Thailand
- just for a break ! 

[Elmirany]

Ignorance to human right is the word for Prime Minister of Thailand. So sad, he endorsed criminal wanted by World Court!

[BarraMarra]

A TAT spokesman has confirmed Air Gaza has been granted permission from AOT to reopen flight Opps with the possibility of more tourists from Gaza escaping the Attacks from Israel.

[issan101]

The new PM is lacking in his understanding of world affairs.  But that's typical of naive Thai politicians. Shortsighted with no moral compass
