After months of speculation, Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha finally announced that he will join the United Thai Nation Party (UTN) and become its sole prime minister candidate for the next general election which is slated for May 2023.
The 2014 coup leader told reporters that there is no conflict between him and Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan, the leader of the ruling pro-military Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) which nominated Prayut for the premiership position in the 2019 election.
Gen. Prayut is joining the UTN as the PPRP did not nominate him as one of its prime minister candidates.
If Gen. Prayut was reselected, he will only be able to stay in power until 2025 due to his term limit hence the PPRP's hesitation and the decision to join the UTN.
