JAKARTA - The National Police Headquarters stated that the declaration of independence called for the United Liberation Movement for West Papua or The United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP) led by Benny Wenda was merely propaganda. Because, so far there has been no legal impact in Indonesia.

"This is a form of provocation, a form of propaganda and colleagues. You can see that to this day in Papua the security and security situation is safe and conducive," said Karo Penmas, Police Public Relations Division, Brigadier General Awi Setiyono, to reporters, Wednesday, December 2.

In addition, the National Police has not yet decided what legal steps to take regarding this matter. The reason is, Benny Wenda has settled and become a citizen in England

"According to Indonesia's point of view, it is a criminal concern, but from the UK it views it as a political issue," he said.

For this reason, the National Police appealed to the whole community not to be influenced by these statements. This is because all of the declarations only aim to divide Indonesia.

"Until now Papua and West Papua are still legally under the Republic of Indonesia," he said.

For your information, Benny Wenda declared Papuan independence on December 1. In addition, Benny also declared himself the interim President.

Even since the declaration of independence, Benny said he would implement a constitutional system and would not submit to the Indonesian government.
