泰国在有争议边界用佛像取代一座印度教雕像, 激起与柬埔寨的紧张关系, Thailand's replacement of a Hindu statue with a Buddha at a disputed border sparked tensions with Cambodia, who called it provocative.

2025年12月,泰国从与柬埔寨有争议边境地区拆除了一座印度教Vishnu雕像,代之以佛像,引起国际批评,使紧张局势重新抬头。 In December 2025, Thailand removed a Hindu Vishnu statue from a disputed border area with Cambodia and replaced it with a Buddha statue, sparking international criticism and renewed tensions. 这一举动被泰国当局说成是一种提高宗教和士气的行为,但被柬埔寨谴责为挑衅和违反停火努力的行为。 The move, justified by Thai authorities as a religious and morale-boosting act, was condemned by Cambodia as provocative and a violation of ceasefire efforts. 以佛教徒为主的两国继续在800公里边界线上发生争端,冲突造成平民伤亡。 Both nations, predominantly Buddhist, continue to dispute the 800-kilometer border, with clashes resulting in civilian casualties. 尽管呼吁缓和局势,但柬埔寨声称泰国部队正在调动和摧毁房屋,泰国则否认挑衅,维持其行动属于宗教自由范围。 Despite calls for de-escalation, Cambodia alleges ongoing Thai troop movements and destruction of homes, while Thailand denies provocation, maintaining its actions fall within religious freedom.
