Thailand and Cambodia agree to 'immediate ceasefire'

Thailand and Cambodia agree to 'immediate ceasefire'

Here is a 167-word summary of the news article: Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to an "immediate ceasefire" after a border dispute escalated, leading to clashes between the two countries' militaries. The dispute centers around the ownership of land near the ancient Preah Vihear temple, which is claimed by both nations. The agreement to cease hostilities came after US President Donald Trump threatened to pause tariff negotiations with the countries until the violence stopped. Trump warned that the conflict could jeopardize ongoing trade talks between the US and the two Southeast Asian nations. Both Thailand and Cambodia have now ordered their troops to withdraw from the disputed area and refrain from further military action. The two governments have also agreed to resolve the long-standing border issue through peaceful negotiations. The ceasefire appears to be an effort to de-escalate the situation and avoid further clashes that could destabilize the region.
