May 3rd, 2010 - 7:06 pm ICT by ANI
Bangkok, May 3 (ANI): Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva has said he will be drawing a roadmap to bring about a rapprochement with the anti-government United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) or the Red-Shirts.
The Red-Shirts clashes with security forces left 27 people dead and almost a 1000 injured. Pro-government protestors also took out a rally on May 2nd.
“I will present a political solution or roadmap” to end the crisis,” the Bangkok Post quoted Vejjajiva as saying.
“To find a political situation, we have to listen (to everybody), not only to the government, politicians, protesters or a group of people who opposed the protests,” he added. (ANI)
