""I think they're aware that there are consequences from the war. But they haven't come out to talk to us about how they can help. They haven't approached us directly saying, 'Oh, we understand that you have to endure the impact, and we can help you out.'""
""Buy oil from the United States of America. We have plenty.""
""Our position is that this war should not have taken place in the first place. We don't want to condemn the U.S. directly. But this is something that should not have started.""
Thailand's foreign minister, Sihasak Phuangketkeow, stated that the Trump administration has not provided direct assistance to Thailand during the economic fallout from the American-Israeli war against Iran. As a result, Thailand is looking towards U.S. rivals like Russia and China for help. The economic impact is particularly severe in Asia, which relies heavily on Middle Eastern fuel. Sihasak expressed that the war should not have occurred and emphasized the need for U.S. support, which has been minimal.
