當?shù)貢r間8月29日，泰國憲法法院裁定，被暫?？偫砺殑盏呐逋ㄌ乖谂c柬埔寨參議院主席洪森通話事件中的有關做法違反憲法相關規(guī)定，即日起解除其總理職務。

Thailand's Constitutional Court ruled to dismiss Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra from office on Friday, after finding her guilty of violating the constitution during a controversial leaked phone call between her and Cambodian Senate President Hun Sen.

在憲法法院裁決后，佩通坦在總理府召開記者發(fā)布會，表示接受法院裁決結果。

另據(jù)@CCTV國際時訊 報道，佩通坦說，憲法法院的裁決結果將帶來政局變化。

“Once again, a court verdict has abruptly changed the political landscape,” Paetongtarn told reporters in Bangkok.

據(jù)泰國媒體此前報道，如果裁決佩通坦被正式解職，泰國政府將面臨重組或觸發(fā)提前大選。

Thailand’s Parliament is expected to convene soon to begin the process of selecting the next prime minister.

佩通坦為何違憲

憲法法院9名法官29日經(jīng)過合議庭審理，以六比三的表決結果裁定佩通坦違憲。

裁決書說，法院認為，雖然佩通坦與洪森通話是為了保護國家利益，但她在通話中有涉及泰軍方的負面言論，并向洪森求情，不利于國家利益，存在違憲行為，依據(jù)憲法終止其總理職務，這一裁定自憲法法院7月1日暫停其總理職務之日起生效。

A panel of judges on the Constitutional Court agreed, by a vote of six to three, to strip Paetongtarn of her premiership status, as her actions constituted a serious violation of ethical standards.

今年6月18日，柬埔寨方面流出一段佩通坦和洪森的通話錄音。通話中，佩通坦稱呼洪森為“叔叔”，請求洪森協(xié)助自己解決兩國的邊境問題，甚至批評一名泰國陸軍前線指揮官加劇緊張局勢。

佩通坦此舉被指有損國家尊嚴與形象，泰國36名參議員提請憲法法院調查佩通坦是否違反憲法與政治道德標準。

Paetongtarn was suspended from her duties as prime minister on July 1, pending a ruling on an ethics complaint stemming from her divisive handling of a border dispute with Cambodia. Tensions between the neighbors had mounted after soldiers from both countries briefly exchanged gunfire in a disputed border area in June.

A subsequently leaked audio recording revealed that Paetongtarn made a private call to Hun Sen to discuss how to ease bilateral tension, in which she addressed Hun Sen as “uncle” and referred to a Thai army commander as an equivalent to "opponent".

The clip led to a petition from 36 senators to the Constitutional Court of Thailand, in which the senators requested that the court suspend Paetongtarn from her role as prime minister. They claimed her remarks showed a lack of responsibility, and the clip raised serious concerns over Thai sovereignty, the military and the people.

佩通坦曾為自己辯解說，她與洪森通話出于維護邊境和平與安全的目的，其措辭屬于“私下溝通策略”，是一種外交手段，沒有違反憲法規(guī)定。

泰國憲法法院7月1日宣布，受理有關調查總理佩通坦是否存在違憲行為的請愿書，并當即暫停佩通坦行使總理職權。本月21日，佩通坦親自出庭接受質詢，并按法院要求在25日前提交了最后陳詞。
