Gerindra Calls Kaesang's Plan To Meet Prabowo A Fresh Wind Of Politics

JAKARTA - Secretary General (Secretary General) of the Gerindra Party Ahmad Muzani said the meeting between Gerindra Party Chairman Prabowo Subianto and the Chairman of the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI) Kaesang Pangarep could be a "fresh wind" for the current political dynamics.

"We heard that PSI really wanted Kaesang to meet Pak Prabowo, but I don't know when and what the meeting was," said Muzani after the Declaration of the Prabowo Volunteers at the Joang'45 building, Jakarta, quoted by ANTARA, Monday, October 9.

Muzani said that his party did not want to be too confident in the planned meeting. He also hopes that the meeting between the Gerindra Party and PSI can provide fresh air in the form of support for Prabowo Subianto as a presidential candidate (candidate) for the supporting of the Advanced Indonesia Coalition (KIM).

According to Muzani, the support from anywhere for Prabowo Subianto is currently important for the struggle to win the 2024 election. This support is part of a common force to fight for the nation and state.

"We are very open to it," he added.

In addition, continued Muzani, the support of the Jokowi Young Ulama Solidarity (Samawi) volunteers to Prabowo Subianto as a candidate for president is also a form of support from President Jokowi.

"I consider it a support," he said.

Samawi's support for Prabowo was given because the defense minister was considered capable of continuing President Joko Widodo's leadership line.

"They declared support and also proposed the name Mas Gibran (Rakabuming Raka) as a candidate for vice president, a companion," said Ahmad Muzani.

He said the names that came from various components of the nation, from figures, coalition parties, and volunteers, were people who intended to advance the nation. The names will be discussed together with the coalition so that it becomes a joint decision.
