Thailand's Strategy Amid Geopolitical Tensions 🌏

At a debate titled Thailand Redesign 2026: The Next Level, hosted by Thansettakij and its partners, Prommin Lertsuridej, a key figure in the Pheu Thai Party, and Karndee Leopairote, the Democrat Party’s prime ministerial candidate, shared their visions on how Thailand should navigate rising geopolitical tensions as the country prepares to form a new government after the February 8 election.

Asked how Thailand should balance relations between the United States and China, Prommin said the Kingdom should not rely on only one side but position itself where the benefits lie, placing greater emphasis on the economy rather than political rivalries.
