Cambodia has launched a compulsory conciliation process under international law aimed at resolving a long-running maritime boundary dispute with Thailand. Cambodia has informed the United Nations and Thailand about the launch of this process. Thailand unilaterally terminated a 2001 bilateral agreement with Cambodia that provided a framework for negotiations over the disputed area in the Gulf of Thailand where the two countries’ maritime claims overlap.

Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said he was not aware that Cambodia had initiated the conciliation process, and that Thailand has not yet determined when it will proceed further, according to oedigital.com.
