Thailand rejects ICJ jurisdiction

NSC set to meet on Cambodia spat today
Thailand does not recognise the jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in the land dispute with neighbouring Cambodia.
The government issued its second statement yesterday on the Thailand-Cambodia border situation, saying that since the recent clash that occurred in the Chong Bok area on May 28, the two sides have discussed and agreed to use existing bilateral mechanisms to resolve the issue.
These include the Joint Border Commission (JBC), the Thai-Cambodian General Border Committee (GBC), and the Regional Border Committee (RBC).
This was the result of discussions between the army commanders of the two sides on May 29.
“Cambodia has stated its intention to involve the International Court of Justice. Thailand has not recognised the compulsory jurisdiction of the ICJ since 1960. Thailand and Cambodia already have existing bilateral mechanisms to address these issues, which has been the agreement from the beginning,” according to the statement.
