UN Immediately Declare Support To Presidential Candidate Prabowo Subianto

JAKARTA - The Crescent Star Party (PBB) will immediately declare support for the presidential candidate (candidate) as well as the General Chair of the Gerindra Party Prabowo Subianto in the 2024 presidential election.

UN Secretary General (Sekjen) Afriansyah Noor said his party was unanimous to support Prabowo. This, said Afriansyah, has been stated in the decree (SK) and will be declared on Sunday (30/7).

"We are determined, we are fighting, and we will struggle to win our presidential candidate, Mr. Prabowo Subianto. This is an absolute price and we will not be able to deny it again. The decree has been made," he said at the UN DPP office, Jakarta, as reported by ANTARA, Monday, July 24.

Afriansyah explained that the United Nations had one command under the General Chairperson of the United Nations, Yusril Ihza Mahendra, to support Prabowo. In addition, he said, the UN syuro assembly had also approved the decision.

"We will no longer discuss and have one command with the letter that has been determined. We will submit it on July 30 to Pak Prabowo and the Gerindra Party," said Afriansyah.

The United Nations, he continued, had also instructed the chairman of the regional leadership council (DPW) to attend the declaration, and agreed to win the United Nations and Prabowo.

"And one determination of his command to Pak Yusril to win Pak Prabowo Subianto as our presidential candidate," said Afriansyah.

Afriansyah said he had discussed the UN decision to support Prabowo to President Joko Widodo. He admitted that Jokowi responded to the decision with a smile.

"So, Pak Jokowi just smiled. So, smiling is a deep meaning. God willing, our support for Pak Prabowo will be approved by Pak Jokowi as president of the Republic of Indonesia," he said.

The Gerindra Party DPP ranks are known to have visited the UN DPP Office. Secretary General of the Gerindra Party Ahmad Muzani said his arrival was a return visit after the UN Ketum visited Prabowo's residence in Kertanegara last April.

"Our arrival to the UN headquarters is a series of arrivals by Prof. Yusril as chairman of the United Nations, who at that time was accompanied by the UN secretary general, the chairman of the shuro council, and friends of the UN DPP, met Pak Prabowo at that time in Ramadan," he said.

Muzani said that the Gerindra Party and the United Nations had discussed a lot. According to him, the UN as a party with strong populist roots has a common view of Prabowo's priority fields as a presidential candidate, namely food, energy, and water.

"That is what accelerates when the United Nations makes the decision to immediately support Pak Prabowo Subianto," said Muzani.

Muzani said Prabowo would attend the UN's declaration of support for him on July 30.

"God willing, he (Prabowo) will attend," said Muzani.
