Target: U.S. President, U.S. State Department, ASEAN, and United Nations
Goal: We urge the U.S. government and international stakeholders to take concrete steps beyond monitoring, ensuring the ceasefire is upheld, civilians are protected, and human rights are prioritized in the Cambodia-Thailand border region.
The recent ceasefire agreement between Cambodia and Thailand, facilitated by Malaysia and supported by the United States and China, is a critical step toward de-escalating violence along the border. However, monitoring alone is not enough. Border communities continue to face displacement, loss of livelihoods, and threats to their safety. We call on the U.S. government, ASEAN, and the United Nations to take active measures to ensure the ceasefire is respected and to address the root causes of the conflict.
It is essential to center the voices and needs of affected civilians, uphold international human rights standards, and promote dialogue that leads to a just and lasting peace. We demand transparent reporting, humanitarian aid for those impacted, and accountability for any violations of the ceasefire or human rights.
