ARANYAPRATHET, Thailand, July 21 (Reuters) - Talks between Thailand and Cambodia failed on Monday to end a military stand-off over the disputed Preah Vihear temple on their border.

Soldiers would remain in their current positions at the temple, but avoid any confrontation, Thai Supreme Commander Boonsrang Niumpradit told reporters after the talks aimed at resolving the week-long impasse.
