Thai Prime Minister, Yingluck Shinawatra has ruled out an early election, following six days of protests aimed at removing her from office.

According to Yingluck who stressed that she would not authorize the use of force against protesters occupying government ministries, the situation in Thailand was not calm enough for polls.

She declared this after demonstrators forced their way into the army headquarters in Bangkok and held a demonstration there.

Ms Yingluck has been prime minister since 2011, when her Pheu Thai party won a general election.

She is also quoted to have expressed fear that the protesters would not be satisfied if she called a new election.

“I love this country. I devote myself to this country. I need only one thing for the country: we need to protect democracy," she said.

Ms Yingluck said the situation in Thailand was "very sensitive" and had repeated her call for negotiations to resolve the crisis on Thursday, after surviving a no-confidence vote.
