Report Thai Government Resists US Tariff Talks Amid Military Base Rumours
Photo courtesy of Thai Newsroom Amid rising tensions, Thai officials are resisting US tariff cut talks linked to potential military bases, a decision urging caution. In a recent development, the Thai government is under pressure regarding a substantial 36 percent US tariff on Thai goods, set to begin on 1st August. Concerns have intensified over a rumoured proposal allowing the US to establish a military base in Thailand as a bargaining chip for reducing these tariffs. Nantiwat Samart, a former secretary to the Foreign Ministry, expressed his disapproval in a Facebook post titled “Oppose Foreign Military Base.” He urged Thailand not to risk entanglement in international conflicts by succumbing to military base demands. “Don’t expect to gain from negotiating the Trump tariff,” he stated, noting a global shift towards divided alliances. He highlighted Indonesia’s similar dilemma, with pressure to exit the BRICS economic group for tariff alleviation. Critics warn against bowing to so-called “extreme Western fanatics” advocating for a shift towards Western democracy as a means for economic relief. Nantiwat referenced Japan and South Korea—Western-style democracies still facing high tariffs—to emphasise the lack of guaranteed benefits. He advised the Thai government to brace for economic impacts, proposing initiatives to shield businesses and reduce living costs, such as lowering fuel and electricity prices. Sutin Wannabovorn, a former foreign correspondent, echoed concerns, mentioning speculation that one condition for reducing tariffs might involve the US using Tab Lamu Naval Base in Phang Nga Province to counterbalance China’s naval influence. Wannabovorn called for government transparency on this matter. Simultaneously, Indonesia remains resolute in its BRICS membership despite additional US tariff threats, as reported by the Jakarta Globe. President Trump’s imposition of a cumulative 20 percent tariff targets BRICS members promoting “anti-American policies,” notably their shift towards local currency usage over the US dollar, known as dedollarisation. Indonesia’s commitment to BRICS aligns with recent entry as its 10th member, accepting potential economic repercussions. State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi stated Jakarta’s readiness to face the consequences, underlining the geopolitical tensions at play. As the August deadline approaches, the focus remains on how these economic and strategic decisions will unfold, with Thailand weighing its options carefully to maintain sovereignty and economic stability.
