"Now these gentlemen are about to sign what we're calling the Kuala Lumpur Peace Accords, good name, both countries are agreeing to cease all hostilities and work to build good, neighborly relationships, which have already started. 18 Cambodian prisoners of war will be released and under this agreement, observers from ASEAN countries, including Malaysia, will be deployed to make sure that the peace prevails and endures. I have no doubt that it will." ::Trump was at the ASEAN summit, where he pledged the U.S. would be a strong partner for generations "My message to the nations of Southeast Asia is that the United States is with you 100% and we intend to be a strong partner and friend for many generations to come. One year ago we were in a different position but now we're in the best position we've ever been, I really do, I say it's a golden age of America, it's a golden age of the United States and together we'll create incredible prosperity for the nations on both sides of the Pacific Ocean and to seize new opportunities for all of our people." Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul and his Cambodian counterpart Hun Manet signed the agreement at a ceasefire ceremony in front of a backdrop covered in U.S. insignia and the words "Delivering Peace", with Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim also present. It builds on a truce signed three months ago, initially mediated by Ibrahim. Trump helped broker an end to the five-day conflict in July by calling the then-leaders of the two countries and urging them to end hostilities, their worst fighting in recent history, or risk their respective trade talks with Washington being put on hold. Within hours of landing in Malaysia, Trump had finalized trade agreements with four countries, including deals involving critical minerals with Thailand and Malaysia, amid competing efforts from Beijing in the rapidly growing sector.
