As allies consider their next moves, pressure is mounting on Paetongtarn to resign or dissolve the lower house and call new elections.
Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra is fighting to hold on to power less than a year since taking office, after leaked comments critical of the military triggered a political crisis.
The 38-year-old leader, the youngest prime minister in Thailand’s history and the third member of the Shinawatra family to serve as leader, lost her coalition’s second-largest party this week, leaving her coalition with a razor-thin majority in Parliament.
