Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban has turned down an offer by France to help resolve the border conflict between Thailand and Cambodia.
He said Thailand and Cambodia can settle their border dispute without any other country acting as mediator.
Mr Suthep insisted the Thai government wants peace and does not want the conflict to escalate.
He said it is not uncommon for neighbouring countries to have some problems between them, but leaders of the two countries must try to rapidly and peacefully settle the conflict.
The deputy prime minister in charge of security affairs admitted that he was afraid that any involvement by France would lead to a further loss of Thai territory, as happened in 1962 when Thailand lost the ancient Preah Vihear temple to Cambodia by a ruling of the international court.
The spokesman of French foreign ministry said on Wednesday that Paris was willing to mediate a settlement to the border conflict between Thailand and Cambodia.
The spokesman said his ministry was ready to provide the map showing Thai and Cambodian territory prepared for making the 1907 treaty between France and Siam, as Thailand was then called, to help resolve the conflict.

I wonder if UN still taken side toward Thailand? After all of the evidents we proved to them that Thailand started this war crimes against cambodia..United Nations Security Council must not taken side...
Ahbullshit vejjajiva asking UNESCO to delisting Preah Vihear Temple and stop management plans from Cambodia?? Ahbullshit vejjajiva must be drunkard...?
Thailand objected because when the franco-siam maps are revealed they will show that thailand had taken vast territories of cambodian lands. these french maps or franco-siamese maps were produced in cooperation with thailand in 1908 and thailand was given about 50 copies and it never said a word for 50 years. so it meant they have accepted the maps and the 1907 treaty. to reject the maps honest is very dishonest indeed.
Deputy Prime Minister Hor Nanhong should takes this same map and the ICJ ruling and shove them in their face on Monday's meeting.
