Prabowo Highlights Gaza and the West Bank
President Prabowo Subianto emphasised the need for closer coordination between Indonesia and Jordan in responding to the humanitarian crisis in Palestine, particularly in Gaza and the West Bank. This was conveyed during a bilateral meeting with King Abdullah II of Jordan at the Basman Palace in Amman on Wednesday, 25th February.
During the meeting, Prabowo stated that Jordan’s geographical location, bordering the conflict zone, makes it a strategic partner for Indonesia in understanding the developments on the ground. He also expressed his appreciation for the support provided by Jordan.
“So, thank you very much, Your Majesty, for the offer of good support for our contingent. We hope to establish close coordination and cooperation, because you are closest to the problems in Gaza,” said Prabowo.
In addition to Gaza, Indonesia is also paying attention to the dynamics in the West Bank. Prabowo expressed concern that the situation in the region could potentially affect the various stabilisation and humanitarian efforts being carried out.
“We are very concerned about the problems in the West Bank. We believe that this could affect the success of anything we are trying to do in Gaza,” Prabowo said.
He added that Indonesia and Jordan have similar views with several countries in the region in promoting regional stability and conflict resolution. Therefore, according to him, communication and coordination between the two countries’ teams need to be improved so that the response to developments can be carried out quickly and appropriately.
“Therefore, we want to strengthen and improve this cooperation. I think my team will work very closely with your team so that we are always in a position to fully understand the situation. We know exactly what will happen,” Prabowo concluded. (E-4)
