What is the current relationship between the King of Thailand and Yingluck Shinawatra? How about it?

Before he inherited the throne, the current Thai King Vajiralongkorn had very close contacts with the Shinawatra family. When Yingluck was not ousted, she still had some friendship with Vajiralongkorn. However, after Prayuth launched a military coup, Yingluck was forced to go into exile, and Vajiralongkorn and Yingluck were no longer there. connect. After all, one is the richest and most powerful king in Thailand, while the other is a fugitive who has been convicted of crimes. He was considered a monarch, minister and friend at first, but now he is an enemy.

When Yingluck's brother Thaksin Shinawatra was still the Prime Minister of Thailand, he had a very close relationship with Vajiralongkorn. Although Vajiralongkorn seemed not to be doing his job properly, he was after all the old Thai king who favored boys over girls. The only son, who became the crown prince at the age of 20, is the future king of Thailand, so Thaksin had the intention to win over Vajiralongkorn from the beginning. Yingluck is the ninth child of the Shinawatra family. After she returned from studying abroad, her brother Thaksin intended to train her as a successor, so he often took Yingluck to interact with Vajiralongkorn.

However, the plan could not keep up with the changes. When Thaksin went to the United Nations for a meeting, the military government launched a coup. The mastermind behind it was obviously the old Thai king, which meant that the royal family and the Shinawatra family The relationship broke down, and Vajiralongkorn and Yingluck no longer interacted with each other as before. During his administration, Thaksin was deeply loved by the people. He focused his work on the rural poor, rural grassroots and urban poor, and carried out many reforms to the bureaucracy. However, Thaksin's actions seriously damaged the interests of the royal family, the military government and other powerful classes, so he was killed.

Although Thaksin could not return to China, Yingluck, the sister he had been cultivating, stepped forward and took on the important responsibility. With the support of the people, Yingluck came to power smoothly. However, Yingluck still represents the interests of the middle and lower classes, so she will definitely conflict with the interests of the powerful class. Moreover, Yingluck's approval rating exceeded 70 at that time, which seriously aroused the alarm of the royal family, so the military government later launched another coup to oust Yingluck.

The moment Yingluck escaped from Thailand, Vajiralongkorn and Yingluck had nothing to do with each other. They had no relationship as friends, and no relationship between monarch and minister. Moreover, after Vajiralongkorn succeeded to the throne, Prayut was still seeking help from other countries to extradite Thaksin and Yingluck, so it can be seen that the royal family still regards Thaksin and Yingluck as a threat.
