US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has confirmed she will attend the ministerial meetings of Asean and its dialogue partners in Thailand in July, Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya said on Friday.
Mr Kasit, who is on a one-week official visit to the USA, was speaking after a meeting with Mrs Clinton.
"I've informed her that the Abhisit Vejjajiva administration is working for national reconciliation," he said. "Some parts of the constitution will be amended to enhance the democratic system."
He said Mrs Clinton did not question him about political stability in Thailand or the political movement backing ousted premier Thaksin Shinawatra as she was kept well informed by the US ambassador to Thailand.
However, she had her concern about the border disputes between Thailand and Cambodia.
"I have affirmed that Thailand will resolve the border disputes through peaceful means and Thailand will continue to support Cambodia in its infrastructure projects despite any conflicts," he said.
Mrs Clinton hoped to strengthen the long-term ties between Thailand and Washington during her visit, he said.
