Thailand’s Prime Minister says military action will continue
Cambodia's defence ministry says Thai planes bombed hotel buildings
There have been further hostilities along Thailand and Cambodia's disputed border, just hours after President Trump said that the neighbours had agreed to stop fighting. In a social media post, Thailand's prime minister said that his country would continue military action until it feels that there are no more threats to its territory or people. Earlier, Cambodia's defence ministry said that Thai planes had bombed hotel buildings and bridges on Saturday morning.
Also in the programme: political prisoners in Venezuela; and a new documentary about the tribulations of a farmer in North Macedonia.
Joining presenter Julian Worricker to discuss these stories and more are Alev Scott, a Turkish-British writer and journalist based in the UK; and Danny Sriskanderajah, chief executive of the progressive, UK-based New Economics Foundation think-tank.
