Cambodia-Thailand dispute

The Cambodia-Thailand dispute mainly centers on overlapping border areas, particularly around the Preah Vihear Temple, an ancient Hindu site on a mountain. Both countries claim sovereignty over the site and surrounding land, leading to tensions and occasionally armed clashes. The conflict is complicated by historical borders, national pride, and differing interpretations of treaties. International courts, like the International Court of Justice, have been involved in ruling on border boundaries, but disputes persist due to differing national perspectives and local tensions. The issue remains a sensitive and ongoing challenge to bilateral relations.
