Thai Prime Minister Anutin confirmed he expects to speak with President Trump at 9:20 p.m. local time on December 12. Earlier on December 10, Trump said he would call the leaders of both countries and believed he "could get them to stop fighting."
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on December 11 that Trump had not called the leaders of Thailand and Cambodia, but affirmed that the U.S. was closely monitoring the situation and actively engaging at the highest level.

According to the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Foreign Minister Sihasak Phuangketkeow spoke by phone with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on December 12, emphasizing Thailand's commitment to a peaceful resolution but stressed the need for "substantive action and commitment" to maintain long-term stability. The US side affirmed its readiness to support the promotion of peace.
Anutin also said that the decision to dissolve parliament on December 11 – earlier than expected – would not affect the conflict resolution process. This move came after relations broke down between his Thai Pride Party and the opposition People's Party, bringing the government's agenda to a standstill.
According to the Royal Gazette published on December 12, King Maha Vajiralongkorn has approved the dissolution of parliament, paving the way for early elections. Thailand's national elections must take place within the next 45-60 days.
