Thousands protest in Bangkok calling for Thai PM to resign
Thousands protest in Bangkok demanding Thai PM's resignation over leaked phone call with Cambodian leader, referring to him as "uncle" and criticizing a military commander. Paetongtarn Shinawatra, Thailand's second female PM, faced public anger despite apologizing for the call. Protesters at the rally, the largest since 2023, waved flags and placards with "PM is enemy of state" slogans, calling for an end to the Shinawatra leadership. Demonstrators cited concerns over national sovereignty and accused Paetongtarn and her father, Thaksin Shinawatra, of being influenced by the Cambodian leader.
