Thailand Confirms Anutin Charnvirakul Prime Minister After Political Turmoil
Anutin Charnvirakul, leader of the Bhumjaithai Party, was elected Thailand's 32nd prime minister, becoming the fourth premier in just over two years and ending a week of political turmoil following the removal of Paetongtarn Shinawatra by the Constitutional Court over ethics violations related to border negotiations with Cambodia. Anutin won 311 votes in parliament, surpassing the required majority, with key support from the opposition People's Party, which agreed to back a minority Bhumjaithai government in exchange for a promise to hold new elections within four months. His rise marks a significant shift away from the Shinawatra family's long-standing influence in Thai politics, especially as Thaksin Shinawatra, Paetongtarn's father and a former prime minister, departed the country amid ongoing legal challenges. Anutin, known for his cannabis decriminalization efforts and strategic coalition-building, has limited experience in fintech and digital assets, raising questions about the future of Thailand's crypto-friendly policies championed by his predecessors. Despite these uncertainties, Anutin’s appointment is seen as a move that may stabilize the government somewhat, although opposition voices warn that the alliance with the People's Party could undermine democratic stability. The political scenario remains dynamic with a general election expected early next year, as the new administration prepares to assume office following royal endorsement.
