# Anutin Charnvirakul

## Identity and office

Anutin Charnvirakul has been prime minister of Thailand since 7 September 2025, after a 5 September House vote of 311. The House re-elected him on 19 March 2026 with 293 votes. Paetongtarn Shinawatra, removed by the Constitutional Court over a leaked call with Hun Sen, is unresolved. Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut is unresolved. Hun Sen is live. This run references him.

The premiership is House-and-palace. That limit is the first fact about his 2025–26 power. The second is that the People’s Party condition of a constitution rewrite did not survive December 2025.

The deal file is dated. On 5 September 2025 he won House election with People’s Party votes promised against a constitution rewrite and an early election. The People’s Party stayed in opposition, leaving a minority government. In December 2025 he dissolved the House when that conditionality broke and a no-confidence threat loomed ([Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/thailands-anutin-picked-pm-candidate-consequential-february-polls-2025-12-24/)). The 8 February 2026 snap returned Bhumjaithai as largest party on a nationalism wave neighbouring Cambodia clashes. Those clashes and Hun Sen’s call remain Paetongtarn/Hun Sen weather. This page stores the dissolution sequel and the 19 March re-election.

A Senate-election collusion investigation is neighbouring allegation, not a completed judgment. Cannabis decriminalisation in 2022 as health minister is neighbouring, not this premiership Contribution.

## Documented benefits

The offsets that a commissioned-positive portrait would lead with are real only where dated. Two completed House elections (5 September 2025, 19 March 2026) are arithmetic. A royal endorsement is procedure. They are not a civic opening of the constitution on the promised timetable.

## Contributions and limits of responsibility

He accepted the 5 September vote and the 7 September endorsement. He dissolved the House. He accepted the 19 March re-election. He did not write Paetongtarn’s ethics judgment. He did not write Hun Sen’s transcript. Sharing a border-clash nationalism campaign is not a reason to convert Hun Sen’s live page into this Contribution as a twin.

## Causal chain through facts

5 September 2025 strengthens Bhumjaithai PM as palace-tutored House capture after a court removal. 19 March 2026 continues that file after a snap. None of these hang on ukraine-war. He connects to those mechanisms only through dated facts, not as a tag on a personality.

## What the score does not say

This page does not promise an exact number. Direction on the broken constitution-deal cluster is negative relative to the September bargain. House arithmetic twice is recorded. A later elected constitution would be a different fact. Paetongtarn, Natthaphong, and Hun Sen remain names on this file — Hun Sen live, the others unresolved.
