泰国总理停职,泰国总理佩通坦因“电话门”事件被停职

Thai prime minister suspended over leaked phone call

Thailands Constitutional Court has suspended Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, who has come under mounting pressure to resign over her leaked phone conversation with former Cambodian leader Hun Sen.

The clip, in which Paetongtarn called him "uncle" and criticised a Thai military commander, sparked public anger and a petition for her dismissal, which the court is now considering.

That could make Paetongtarn the third politician in the powerful Shinawatra clan - which has dominated Thai politics for the past two decades - to lose power before completing their term.

泰国宪法法院已暂时下令总理佩通坦?钦那瓦停职，此前她因与柬埔寨前领导人洪森的一段外泄通话而面临越来越大的辞职压力。

在这段录音中，佩通坦称呼洪森为“叔叔”，并批评了一位泰国军方指挥官，这引发了公众愤怒，也促使有人提出请愿要求将她免职，法院目前正审理此案。

若她被罢免，将成为过去20年主导泰国政坛的钦那瓦家族中，第三位在任期未满前失去权力的政治人物。
