        "summary": "The Indonesian Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs has debunked a viral social media claim that former Vice President Jusuf Kalla negotiated with the Iranian ambassador to release a detained Pertamina tanker in the Strait of Hormuz, stating no credible evidence supports it. The Foreign Ministry is actively coordinating with Iranian authorities to ensure the safety of Indonesian-flagged vessels, with two already permitted to pass through the strait amid heightened regional tensions. This fact-check highlights the importance of verifying information during sensitive geopolitical situations involving Indonesian interests in the Middle East.",

On its\nofficial website Komdigi.go.id, cited on Tuesday (31\/3), a Facebook post\nalleging that Jusuf Kalla conducted negotiations with the Iranian\nAmbassador is untrue news. \u201cIn fact, the claim is untrue,\u201d Komdigi\nstated. Komdigi emphasised that no credible news confirming the claim\nwas found. A Google search using the keywords \u201cJusuf Kalla Sukses Nego\nDubes Iran Perihal Kapal Tanker Pertamina\u201d led to a YouTube account\ntitled \u201cJusuf Kalla Terima Dubes Iran, Bahas Korban Sipil hingga Peran\nIndonesia di Perang Iran vs AS\u201d. That meeting discussed recent\ndevelopments in the situation in Iran as well as opportunities for\nIndonesia to play a role in promoting conflict resolution. Furthermore,\nthe site reported that the Spokesperson for the Indonesian Ministry of\nForeign Affairs, Vahd Nabyl Achmad Mulachela, stated that the Ministry\nof Foreign Affairs through the Indonesian Representation in Tehran has\nheld meetings with relevant authorities in Iran and continues to\ncoordinate closely with local parties to obtain the latest information\nregarding the situation in the Strait of Hormuz. It was conveyed that\nthe Ministry of Foreign Affairs through its representatives also\ncontinues to ensure the safety of Indonesian-flagged ships. He gave an\nexample of two Indonesian ships that were successfully allowed to pass\nthrough the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>",
