Donald Trump has said he believes Thailand and Cambodia want to settle their differences, as the leaders of both countries prepare to meet in Malaysia for talks to end deadly clashes that are into their fifth day.

At least 35 people have been killed and more than 270,000 displaced by the worst fighting in over a decade between the neighbouring countries. Clashes continued early on Monday, just hours before negotiations were due to begin in Kuala Lumpur.
