Thailand has recalled its ambassador to neighboring Cambodia after former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, a fugitive from justice, was named an adviser to the government there.
A Thai foreign ministry statement issued Thursday said the Thai ambassador is being recalled in response to the Thaksin announcement a day earlier by Prime Minister Hun Sen's government.
The Thai statement said all agreements with Cambodia would be reviewed.
Thaksin was ousted by a military coup in 2006. He was convicted in absentia by a Thai court last year of violating a conflict of interest law and sentenced to two years in prison. His Thai passport was revoked, forcing him to travel on other countries' passports.
