00:00of the Kingdom of Thailand, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Cambodia, and the President
00:07of the United States of America.
00:19Well, this is so exciting because we did something that a lot of people said couldn't be done
00:25and we saved maybe millions of lives on this one-piece deal itself.
00:32And I'll tell you what makes me so happy is the two countries we're dealing with and the third that helped so much, I appreciate so much.
00:41Maybe it couldn't have been done without you, but they really like each other.
00:46I'm not used to that when I do these deals.
00:49Usually there's a lot of hatred.
00:50They like each other, so it made it a little bit easier.
00:53But millions of people are alive today because of this peace treaty.
00:58So before I begin, I want to extend our deepest condolences to the Prime Minister,
01:04Ah Newton, as well as His Majesty, the King of Thailand,
01:09and the entire nation on the passing of Her Majesty,
01:14Queen Sirikhet, the Queen Mother,
01:17and a beautiful, incredible woman who is so respected all over,
01:23all over, all over the world actually respected.
01:26I know the people of Thailand will remember her forever
01:29as the embodiment of dignity, kindness, and grace.
01:33This just happened.
01:34But this is a woman who is so loved and respected.
01:38Today, we honor the memory by bringing the blessing of peace
01:45to the nation she dearly loved.
01:47She loved this nation like few people love their nations.
01:50This is a momentous day for all of the people of Southeast Asia
01:55as we sign a historic agreement
01:57to end the military conflict between Cambodia and Thailand.
02:01And we're so honored to be involved in that.
02:06It's so important to me.
02:07Two great countries.
02:09But they were going at it.
02:11I want to congratulate the two courageous leaders.
02:15And that's what they are.
02:15They were courageous.
02:17We're taking this monumental step.
02:20Prime Minister Hoon Manette and Prime Minister Ah Newton.
02:25I also want to thank Prime Minister Anwar of Malaysia.
02:31I called him right at the beginning and I said,
02:33you know, you have two countries that are fighting right next to you.
02:36We need a third place.
02:38We need a sort of a neutral place, right?
02:40And he was there.
02:41And I said to him, you know, if we get this solved,
02:44I'm coming to your country.
02:47And I told the truth, didn't I?
02:50A lot of times they say that, and that's the last you ever see.
02:52But I felt I had an obligation to come because you were so great.
02:56And the two men alongside of you are so great.
02:58Historic figures now.
02:59They're really historic figures.
03:01So I felt it was an obligation I had.
03:03I told it to you.
03:04That was about a year ago.
03:07And all of this has taken place.
03:09It's been so beautiful to see.
03:11It had started and it was, there was a lot of killing.
03:14And then when we got it stopped very quickly in this case.
03:18Some, some we did in 32 years, took 32 years to get them stopped.
03:22They were fighting for a long time.
03:24This was very nasty, but it was stopped very quickly before it started.
03:29And the two leaders have great respect for each other.
03:33But the prime minister played a very important role
03:37in helping convene the two sides for discussions here in Kuala Lumpur.
03:42Earlier this year, an armed clash broke out along the border of these two countries.
03:49Really ancient countries by most standards.
03:53They've been long time, tremendous cultures resulting in numerous deaths
03:58and thousands, thousands and thousands of people displaced from their homes.
04:03It was starting because of America's strong commitment to stability and peace
04:08in this region and every region where we can do it.
04:11My administration immediately began working to prevent the conflict from escalating.
04:17I held phone calls with both leaders.
04:20I was actually at Turnberry in Scotland when I did this.
04:24And we had a lot of phone calls to the three of us and then the four of us.
04:29We had a lot of phone calls.
04:31It was a beautiful day.
04:33I remember how beautiful it was.
04:35Turnberry is a great place.
04:37But I said, this is much more important than playing a round of golf.
04:41So we sat there all day long making phone calls.
04:43And it was amazing the way it came together very quickly.
04:47I mean, really very quickly.
04:48You caused me very good entertainment.
04:51I could have had a lot of fun.
04:52But this is much more fun for me than anything having to do with almost anything
04:57because you're saving people and you're saving countries.
04:59But I asked them to choose the path of prosperity and peace over needless bloodshed and war.
05:07At the end of July, after extremely productive discussions, we reached a ceasefire agreement.
05:12And now these gentlemen, and they really are gentlemen, high quality people, both went to college in the United States.
05:22And now these gentlemen are about to sign what we're calling the Kuala Lumpur Peace Accords.
05:29Good name.
05:29Both countries are agreeing to cease all hostilities and work to build good neighborly relationships, which have already started.
05:39Eighteen Cambodian prisoners of war will be released.
05:43And under this agreement, observers from ASEAN countries, including Malaysia, will be deployed to make sure that the peace prevails and endures.
05:54I have no doubt that it will.
05:55We have another situation like that right now in the Middle East and Gaza.
06:01You might have read a little bit about Gaza.
06:03And that's another one we're very proud of.
06:06But we have a lot of people watching that, a lot of people.
06:10I think this is a much different kind of a thing.
06:14Two countries are getting along really well.
06:17Today, alongside this peace treaty, we also are signing a major trade deal with Cambodia
06:22and a very important critical minerals agreement with Thailand.
06:26The United States will have a robust commerce and cooperation.
06:31Transactions, lots of them, with both nations as long as they live in peace.
06:36And I really feel that when we make deals, we see two countries that we do a lot of business with.
06:43We do a lot of business with both of them.
06:45We have to use that business to make sure they don't get into wars.
06:51But this is going to be a very long piece.
06:53So, as you know, this is one of eight wars that my administration has ended in just eight months.
07:00We're averaging one a month.
07:01There is only one left.
07:03Although I heard that Pakistan and Afghanistan have started up.
07:07But I'll get that solved very quickly.
07:09I know them both.
07:10And the Pakistan, the field marshal, and the prime minister are great people.
07:15And I have no doubt we're going to get that done quickly.
07:19That one started up a few days ago.
07:23And I just feel it's something I can do.
07:25I do it nicely.
07:26I don't need to do it, I guess.
07:28But if I can take time and save millions of lives, that's really a great thing.
07:32I can't think of anything better to do.
07:34But the eight wars that my administration has ended in just eight months,
07:38there's never been anything like that.
07:40Never.
07:41There never will be either.
07:42I can't think of any president that ever solved one war.
07:46I don't think anybody.
07:46They start wars, they don't solve them.
07:49So nothing like this has been done in history.
07:51And it's an honor to be involved.
07:54On behalf of the United States, I'm proud to help settle this conflict
07:57and really develop good friendships, including people that work with each team.
08:03Look at these very distinguished people.
08:05Except for my people.
08:07My people are much less distinguished.
08:09But they're very good.
08:10But look, my people understand the joke.
08:14But look at these very distinguished people.
08:16And I've gotten to know them.
08:18I want to thank Marco Rubio for being here.
08:20It was great.
08:22You always help.
08:23He was born for this job.
08:25He really was.
08:25He was born for this job.
08:27Secretary of State.
08:28Jameson, thank you very much for all you did on helping, too.
08:32He's the foremost expert on trade.
08:35And we're going to be doing another couple of stops where we'll be talking about no war,
08:39just pure trade.
08:40We'll be talking to President Xi in a day.
08:44We'll be stopping at Japan.
08:46We'll be stopping at South Korea.
08:49And we'll be doing some other things.
08:50But they're more related to trade.
08:53But on behalf of the United States, I'm proud to help settle this conflict and forge a future
08:58for the region where proud, independent nations can prosper and thrive, safety, security, and peace.
09:05It's an amazing thing that's happened to the United States because a year ago, a year and a half ago,
09:12we were a dead country.
09:13We were actually a dead country.
09:14And now we're the hottest country anywhere in the world.
09:16And when I called you, we were in the process of becoming hot.
09:21It's actually quite a while right now.
09:23But we were sort of on our way.
09:25And we had won the election big in a massive amount.
09:29And so I was respected when I called you.
09:31And it was a little bit easier.
09:32I think it's easier when you respect somebody than if you don't respect somebody.
09:36If you don't respect somebody, it never happens.
09:39But I won't forget that day because it was one of the first wars that I got involved in.
09:47And I love doing it.
09:49I love it.
09:49It's like I shouldn't say it's a hobby because it's so much more serious than a hobby.
09:54But it's something that I'm good at.
09:56And it's something I love to do.
09:58The United Nations should be doing this.
09:59But they don't do it.
10:01They turned off my teleprompter when I made a speech.
10:04I had to make a speech without a teleprompter.
10:06They're good at that.
10:07The escalator wasn't working too well.
10:09It came to a complete halt.
10:12But, I mean, the United Nations has such great potential.
10:16I wish they could do it.
10:18They didn't get involved with us at all.
10:19We just did the deal and reported the deal.
10:22And everybody was sort of amazed that we got it done so quickly and so nicely.
10:26But now I'd like to ask Prime Minister Anwar to say a few words.
10:30And then we'll hear from Prime Minister Hoon Manet and Prime Minister Newton.
10:37And these are, I just have to say for a last time, these are incredible men.
10:41The way they came together.
10:43The way they worked so hard.
10:45And we worked long hours.
10:47It was not long days because the days were few in number.
10:52But the hours were very long and very intense.
10:55There was a lot of intensity going on because there was a lot of shooting happening while we were talking.
11:00That brings it to a new level.
11:03And the three men sitting there should really be credited with having done just an incredible job for humanity.
11:10Thank you all very much.
11:11It's an honor to have worked with you.
11:13Appreciate it.
11:14Please.
