JAKARTA - Secretary General of the Indonesian People's Wave Party (Gelora) Mahfudz Siddiq called President Joko Widodo's visit to the conflict countries Russia and Ukraine a "knock on door" diplomatic activity.
The diplomacy carried out by Jokowi has received appreciation from a number of friendly countries of Indonesia, said Mahfudz in the webinar "Prospects of Solving the Russo-Ukrainian War: Collective or Individual Efforts?" reported by ANTARA, Friday, July 22.
"When this knock-on diplomacy is welcomed by the warring parties and also appreciated by other countries in the world, then it can be said as an indicator of the initial success of this diplomacy," said Mahfudz.
Regarding Indonesia's chairmanship of the G20 Forum, he hopes that the leaders of Russia and the United States will attend the G20 Summit in Bali in November, so that President Jokowi can continue his efforts to seek a diplomatic solution to the war between Russia and Ukraine.
He also assessed that the visit of President Jokowi and First Lady Iriana to the camp for war victims in Ukraine had a humanitarian dimension.
"This makes it difficult for Russia and Ukraine to reject Indonesia's role in resolving wars involving the two countries diplomatically," he added.
Meanwhile, Director General of the United States-European Ministry of Foreign Affairs Ngurah Swajaya said world leaders must take various steps to overcome the impact of the war between Russia and Ukraine. The war caused a humanitarian crisis, a food crisis, and an energy crisis.
"That's why, when President Jokowi received an invitation from the G-7 as a partner, he took advantage of that momentum to communicate with the leaders of the G-7, to help stop the war between Russia and Ukraine," said Ngurah.
Moya Institute Executive Director Hery Sucipto said the diplomatic efforts made by President Jokowi in realizing peace between Russia and Ukraine were not as easy as turning the palm of the hand.
Indonesia has shown efforts to carry out the mandate of the Preamble to the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia by participating in carrying out world order based on independence, eternal peace, and social justice.
"And the 'fruits' of these diplomatic efforts have actually begun to be seen, such as the reopening of the food supply chain," he said.
