Srettha Thavisin, a Pheu Thai Party candidate for prime minister, has reaffirmed his support for Move Forward Party (MFP) leader Pita Limjaroenrat's bid for premiership.
Mr Srettha reiterated his stance on Friday in response to reports of an agreement between both parties. According to the agreement, the MFP would take the House speaker post, with the condition that if Mr Pita failed to get sufficient votes in the parliamentary meeting to select the new prime minister, the two parties would remain united and Pheu Thai would have its turn to form the next government.
