GP Ansor: Prabowo's Diplomacy at the Board of Peace for a More Peaceful World
Jakarta (ANTARA) - Chairman of Gerakan Pemuda Ansor (GP Ansor) Addin Jauharudin has assessed that President Prabowo Subianto’s engagement at the Board of Peace (BoP) represents a calm yet firm strategy, presenting Indonesia as a “bridge” for dialogue amid a divided world.
“The Board of Peace is a meeting space for world leaders and prominent figures to discuss conflict resolution, global stability, and humanitarian solutions. At the forum, Indonesia arrived not with a loud voice, but with a clear message: peace must be fought for together,” Addin said in a statement in Jakarta on Sunday.
According to Addin, GP Ansor views President Prabowo’s diplomacy as carrying three simple yet powerful messages. First, the world needs dialogue, not mere finger-pointing.
Second, humanity must be placed above short-term political interests, and third, global stability is the foundation for the prosperity of all nations, including Indonesia.
“This step reminds us of our nation’s history. Indonesia’s first president, Soekarno, once took diplomatic steps that were debated in his time. Yet history proved that strategic thinking and the courage to read the moment became crucial elements in safeguarding national interests,” he said.
He stated that on the Palestine-Israel issue, President Prabowo brought a consistent voice — supporting Palestinian independence, pushing for a permanent ceasefire, and advocating for a two-state solution in accordance with international law.
Indonesia is not merely vocal but also active in humanitarian aid. For GP Ansor, this is the face of Indonesian diplomacy: firm in principle, wise in approach.
Participation in the BoP is not merely symbolic. It is about building the world’s trust in Indonesia. A nation that is stable, courageous enough to speak about peace, and capable of serving as a mediator, is a nation that commands respect.
Global stability means smoother trade, more confident investment, and a more secure economic future. Peace diplomacy ultimately returns to one objective: the welfare of the Indonesian people.
GP Ansor believes that President Prabowo’s engagement in the Board of Peace is part of Indonesia’s role in helping maintain world order, as mandated by the constitution.
“Amid a noisy world, Indonesia chooses to be a calming voice. That is our diplomacy,” he said.
