The top priority for Thailand and Cambodia is to cease fire and stop fighting as soon as possible, resume dialogue, and resolve their border disputes peacefully, a special Chinese envoy to the region said.
China supports ASEAN's mediation efforts and is willing to once again create conditions and provide a platform for dialogue and negotiations between the two sides, the Chinese foreign ministry said on Tuesday, citing Deng Xijun, the ministry's Special Envoy for Asian Affairs.
Deng recently travelled to the two countries, meeting with their respective prime ministers and other senior government officials, as part of China's so-called shuttle diplomacy.
