PM Anwar: US action in Iran-Israel conflict worsens situation, undermines stability
Anwar fields questions from reporters after a session with the Sarawak Keadilan Leadership Council at Riverside Majestic Hotel today. – Bernama photo KUCHING (June 22): Interference by major powers such as the United States in the Iran-Israel conflict will only worsen the situation and undermine regional stability as well as the global economy, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said today. He said the United States' involvement in the conflict could escalate tensions and have a direct impact on key global trade routes such as the Strait of Hormuz. 'Now, with the involvement of external powers, including the United States, the situation will only become more volatile. If the Strait of Hormuz is blocked, it will pose a major problem to the global economy,' he told reporters after a session with the Sarawak Keadilan Leadership Council here. Anwar said Malaysia remains consistent in calling for all parties to cease all forms of violence and demanding an immediate end to Israel's provocative actions and brutality. 'We have firmly stated that for true peace to be achieved, pressure must be applied on Israel to stop its provocative and violent behaviour towards other countries. 'Sovereign nations must not be silenced from voicing out on human rights and universal justice. Our position is clear. Independent and sovereign nations must retain the ability to speak up on issues of rights and justice,' he said. – Bernama anwar ibrahim country's stability global economy Iran-Israel conflict

'No reason for Paetongtarn to resign and dissolve the Parliament', says Thai ruling party
FILE PHOTO: Thailand's Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra speaks during a press conference about tensions following the incident in an undemarcated area on May 28, after a cabinet meeting at the Government House in Bangkok, Thailand, June 10, 2025. -- Photo: REUTERS ISTANBUL (Bernama-Anadolu): Thailand's ruling Pheu Thai Party said on Saturday that Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra will neither resign nor dissolve parliament, rejecting opposition demands following a leaked phone conversation with Cambodia's Senate president; "The Prime Minister has firmly affirmed to us that she will continue to fully carry out her duties in addressing the crises the country is currently facing. "There is no reason to even dissolve the parliament," party Secretary-General Sorawong Thienthong said in a statement posted on Facebook, referring to ongoing tensions with Cambodia. Sorawong said the administration remains focused on using the remainder of its term to advance key policies despite the political fallout from the leaked call. The comments come after a recording of a phone call between Paetongtarn and Cambodian Senate President Hun Sen was posted on the latter's Facebook page. In the call, Paetongtarn is heard criticising Thailand's 2nd Army Region commander over the military's handling of a border dispute that left one Cambodian soldier dead on May 28. Opposition parties and protesters have since called for her resignation and the dissolution of parliament. Thailand's Opposition leader, Natthapong Ruengpanyawut, has demanded a snap election, citing a breach of public trust. In a further escalation, Thai authorities filed a complaint with the Cybercrime Investigation Bureau against Hun Sen, accusing him of threatening national security and stoking bilateral tensions, Thai PBS reported. - Bernama-Anadolu
