Protesters in Thai Capital Retreat
Exhausted and outnumbered by government troops, anti-government protesters ended weeks of street demonstrations Tuesday, offering a respite for Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva after street battles Monday that left 2 people dead and 123 injured.
The collapse of the protest is a mitigated victory for the government, which kept its promise not to evict the protesters by violence, but which suffered the deeply embarrassing incursion by protesters into a regional summit meeting on Saturday, forcing the meeting’s cancellation.
