EU-Thai relations remain strong

BANGKOK, 15 July 2015, (NNT) - The European Union (EU) has dismissed rumors floated in social media outlets that it has imposed sanctions on Thailand.

According to the Permanent Secretary to the Prime Minister's Office, M.L. Panadda Diskul, the EU has officially informed Thailand to disregard the claims, saying the information on various social networks is not true.

The EU and Thailand have a long history together. They have built strong ties in trade, tourism, investment, cultural cooperation, and public cooperation.

Posting such incorrect and misleading information not only creates misunderstanding among the public, but also jeopardizes the good relations between Thailand and the EU, M.L. Panadda said.

But I read it on FaceBook. Has to be true.

Just waiting for the dummy spit if they stop fish imports !!!!

Would have been nice to have had a direct quote from the EU instead of the usual "Thai Official said the EU has informed Thailand".

But of a credibility problem again, imho.

Yet again the Thai government saying that another country's government (ok this time the EU) said something in Thailand's favour. I'll believe it when I see it come directly from Brussels. As for the fish !!! waiting with baited breath.

of course they have good relations ...there both equally as corrupt as each other same same..but different continent..
