Thailand’s prime minister, Anutin Charnvirakul, says the country and the United States are nearing the end of negotiations on a trade deal. He says he received a letter from US President Donald Trump last week confirming both sides are “at the final stage,” according to remarks at a forum in Singapore on Oct 7.
Anutin adds that he expects to sign the agreement during Trump’s next visit to Asia. The two outlets report the same core development—US confirmation that talks are in their final phase and a forthcoming signing tied to a planned visit—while offering limited details on the deal’s specific terms or timeline beyond that expected signing.
