Political Upheaval: Thailand's Prime Minister Suspended Amidst Border Dispute

Thailand's Constitutional Court has placed Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra on suspension, pending an ethics investigation following allegations of impropriety during a border dispute discussion with Cambodia.

The controversial call with Cambodian Senate President Hun Sen sparked accusations of undue deference, leading to public protests by critics of her handling of the situation.

Junctures in the Thai political landscape remain fraught, as Paetongtarn, the youngest daughter of former leader Thaksin Shinawatra, becomes the latest in her family to face political adversity, raising concerns about the stability of Thailand's governance.
