Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut, party-list MP and Prachachon Party leader, said former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra can legally request amnesty under the National Reconciliation Act without any need for vote trading in the upcoming no-confidence debate. He emphasized the law has passed and the case-screening process follows legal procedures, so Thaksin can fully exercise his rights. When asked about potential vote trading between Pheu Thai and all 18 Bhumjaithai ministers, Natthaphong reiterated that Thaksin has the legal right and does not need to negotiate, but such a trade would be unacceptable. He stated Thaksin need not bargain because he can already exercise his rights through the normal legal process. Regarding concerns about political interference in the work of government officials, Natthaphong said if that occurs, it would be something neither he nor the public could accept.
