Bangkok — Thailand's Constitutional Court suspended Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra on Tuesday, pending an ethics investigation over accusations she was too deferential to a senior Cambodian leader when the two discussed a recent border dispute in a phone call that was leaked.

Under pressure in the courts and in parliament, Paetongtarn Shinawatra’s chances of remaining in office are rapidly approaching zero.
