Thailand and Cambodia’s leaders are due to meet for peace talks on Monday, as a festering territorial dispute along their shared frontier dragged into a fifth day of open combat. At least 35 people have been killed and more than 200,000 displaced since Thursday as the countries fight over a smattering of contested ancient temples.

US President Donald Trump on Saturday called upon Cambodia and Thailand to put an end to the ongoing deadly border conflict, threatening them that America would not make any trade deal with them if they did not announce a ceasefire.
