JAKARTA \u2014 Former Vice Presidents Jusuf Kalla (JK) has commended\nPresident Prabowo Subianto\u2019s intention to act as a mediator following\nattacks by the United States and Israel on Iran on Saturday, 28 February\n2026.<\/p>\n
However, JK expressed doubts about the plan\u2019s likelihood of success.\n\u201cThe intention behind the plan is good, but this is a situation that is\nfar more complex,\u201d JK said at his residence on Jalan Brawijaya Raya,\nPulo, Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta, on Sunday, 1 March 2026.<\/p>\n
\u201cEven the Palestinian-Israeli conflict cannot be resolved; it is\ndifficult to bring peace. Because this world is largely determined by\nthe nature and influence of America,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are simply not on equal footing with America. How can we mediate\nbetween unequal parties in negotiations under such circumstances?\u201d he\nasserted.<\/p>\n
Regarding the conflict\u2019s impact on Indonesia, such as rising oil\nprices, JK believes the government must still anticipate the global\nsituation, despite Indonesia\u2019s distance from the Middle East region.<\/p>\n
According to JK, the government must maintain stability by ensuring\njustice and balance for society. He warned that injustice and inequality\ncan trigger social unrest.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe hope Indonesia, particularly the government, will conduct fair\ngovernance and also provide good priorities for society to prevent\nsituations like those occurring in other countries,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
In related developments, Israel attacked Tehran, Iran, on Saturday\nmorning, 28 February 2026. Following the attack, Israel closed its\nairspace and declared a state of emergency. According to The Guardian,\nIsrael closed its airspace in anticipation of possible Iranian\nretaliation with drones and missiles.<\/p>\n
An Israeli military spokesman stated the attack was a precautionary\nmeasure to eliminate threats to the country.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/prabowo-ready-to-mediate-iran-us-dispute-jk-good-intentions-but-world-determined-by-america-1772358904", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
