Thailand and the European Union (EU) have signed the Thai-EU Partnership and Cooperation Agreement (PCA) to boost bilateral cooperation.
Participants at the signing ceremony on Wednesday included Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha and Foreign Minister Don Pramudwinai representing Thailand, while the EU was represented by its High Representative and Vice-President Josep Borrell, as well as Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala.
The new pact will enhance political dialogue on issues of global concern and give more scope for mutually beneficial cooperation in a wide number of policy areas, including the environment, energy, climate change, transport, science and technology, trade, employment and social affairs, human rights, education, agriculture, non-proliferation, counter-terrorism, the fight against corruption and organised crime, migration, and culture.
