In a statement released on 28 Jul 2025, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has strongly denied media reports alleging that Thai forces used chemical weapons. The denial comes amid growing tensions between Thailand and another country, with the two nations scheduled to meet soon.
Thailand remains fully committed to its obligations under the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), a treaty aimed at preventing the spread of chemical arms. The country’s position has been consistent: it condemns the use of chemical weapons anywhere, by anyone, under any circumstances. Thailand is also fully committed to all international instruments on disarmament and the non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.
Since becoming a State Party in 2003, Thailand has demonstrated its strong commitment to the CWC through concrete actions and active collaboration with the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) and other CWC States Parties. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has consistently worked towards building trust and credibility with the international community.
The Ministry’s response comes after a series of baseless accusations, which are part of a larger campaign to discredit Thailand’s reputation. The ministry denounces this disinformation campaign, stating that it is “groundless” and aimed at distorting facts on the ground and undermining Thailand’s standing in the international community.
Thailand’s commitment to its international obligations is unwavering, and the country will continue to work towards strengthening its relationships with other nations. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs reaffirms its confidence in Thailand’s ability to address any concerns or allegations that may arise.
In conclusion, the denial by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs highlights Thailand’s strong stance on its commitment to international agreements and disarmament efforts. As a member of the global community, Thailand will continue to engage with other nations while upholding its obligations under various treaties and conventions.
