Thai Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nikande said on December 8 that Thailand's top priority is to defend the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity, and that Thailand's military action will continue until the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity are no longer threatened. Nikant said at a press conference on the Thai-Cambodian border situation that Cambodia has repeatedly adopted the common tactic of “inciting conflict first, then denying it later” and continues to carry out provocative acts, including planting landmines within Thailand. While creating an image calling for peace and restraint on the outside world, the Cambodian side acted in opposition and violated the cease-fire agreement and the Thai-Cambodia Joint Declaration on Peace.
