Bangkok: Protest sides are getting cleaned up – no unity

In Bangkok, Thailand protest sides are being cleaned up.

Anti-government protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban yesterday ruled out the possibility of talks with politicians in power and also rejected a proposal for a national unity government with figures from all parties.

Suthep said he would only talk with Thaksin Shinawatra, who he said was the de-facto leader of the government, if the ex-premier met him in person at the Dusit Thani Hotel, which is near the main protest site at Lumpini Park.

But he didn’t think Thaksin would dare to return to Thailand for such a meeting and risk being arrested after being convicted and sentenced to two years’ jail for abuse of power.

“So the door for talks should be considered shut,” Suthep said
