Families of Detained Cambodian Soldiers Pin Hopes on Trump Amid Tenuous Ceasefire

Amid a fragile ceasefire between Cambodia and Thailand, families of detained soldiers, like Hong Chanvimean, are placing their hopes on Donald Trump for resolution and support.

• Hong Chanvimean is one of 18 Cambodian soldiers detained in Thailand since July, following a violent border dispute that resulted in dozens of fatalities.
• The ceasefire, brokered by Malaysia and the United States, remains precarious, leaving the fate of detained soldiers uncertain and families anxious.
• Ros Soveayo, a 2-year-old in Prey Thom Village, Cambodia, can only say Papa, highlighting the emotional toll on families separated by the ongoing conflict.
