Thaksin gets US visa : Noppadon
Play
Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra has sought and received a visa to enter the United States, his legal adviser Noppadon Pattama said on Friday.
“The granting of visa has no linkage to the Nasa request to use U-tapao air base for conducting weather research,” he said.
Noppadon said he did not confirm the granting of Thaksin’s visa earlier due to concerns that the Democrats would politicise the visa issue.
He did not say whether Thaksin had immediate plans to travel to the US.
