Thai Foreign Minister Noppadon Pattama has quit after a top court ruled he had violated the constitution by signing a deal over a disputed temple.
He made the announcement he was stepping down on national television.
"But I insist that I have done nothing wrong... I love Thailand, and would The Last of Hitler's Would-Be Assassins Dies ...

Cambodia is petitioning to have the temple on the Thai-Cambodian border listed as a World Heritage site.
On Tuesday, Thailand's constitutional court ruled that the government should not have backed Cambodia's efforts without consulting parliament, because the temple was built on land disputed by the two countries.
The Preah Vihear Hindu temple, near the Thai-Cambodian border, was awarded Unesco World Heritage status on Monday.
Mr Noppadon, who said he would step down on Monday, is the second minister to resign this week.
"I want to see national reconciliation. In order for the government to continue working to solve the country's problems, I resign," he said in remarks broadcast on national television.
