Thailand’s foreign minister on Friday said he urged Myanmar’s military authorities not to violently respond to its army’s loss of an important border trading town to its opponents, and that so far they seemed to be exercising restraint. Parnpree Bahiddha-Nukara spoke during a visit to Mae Sot, which lies directly across a river from Myanmar’s Myawaddy, where army troops abandoned their last defensive position early Thursday.
Speaking to reporters after inspecting the area, Foreign Minister Parnpree said Thailand had already spoken with Myanmar's military and told them they did not wish to see violence, offering Thailand's help.
