Foreign Policy
Thailand practices 'bamboo diplomacy' -- bending with prevailing winds without breaking. It maintains a formal alliance with the US dating to 1954 while deepening economic and military ties with China. Thailand has historically balanced these relationships to maximize its strategic flexibility.
Thailand is active in ASEAN and Mekong subregional cooperation (GMS, ACMECS). It has border issues with Myanmar (refugees, trafficking) and Cambodia but generally manages these bilaterally. Thailand's role as an ASEAN founding member gives it convening power on regional issues.
