JAKARTA - The Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Kemlu) said Indonesia supports UN resolutions regarding Israel's occupation in Palestine, and Israeli practices that affect the human rights of Palestinians in the Palestinian Population Area, including in East Jerusalem. "In line with the basic position of the Republic of Indonesia, which supports Palestine realizing its basic right to independence, Indonesia voted yes," said Director General of Multilateral Cooperation of the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Tri Tharyat, through a statement received by Antara in Jakarta, Saturday, November 12. Tri Tharyat said the support was conveyed through a vote by Committee 4 Special Political Affairs and UN Decolonization on Friday 11 November at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, United States (US). Tri Tharyat admitted that there was a new element in the draft resolution made at the request of opinions from the International Court. The element was made to answer a number of questions such as the possible legal consequences for violation of the basic rights of Palestinian independence by Israel and the possible impact of the practices carried out by Israel on occupation status as well as the legal consequences for other countries and the United Nations. "It is true that there are new elements in the draft resolution, namely the request of advisory opinion of the ICJ against 2 questions, namely whether the legal consequences of violation of the basic rights of Palestinian independence by Israel, and how the impact of Israeli practices on occupation status and what are the legal consequences for other countries and the United Nations," he said.Indonesia, supports these elements because it is very timely so that the rulers who occupy the Palestinian territories can be held accountable. Then, Indonesia's support is also in line with international law, in particular the principles of the UN Charter, and is in line with the fulfillment of civil, economic, social and cultural rights of the Palestinian people.
"Once again, Indonesia supports the Palestinian struggle to fulfill its civil, political and ekososbud rights as an independent country, and a permanent peaceful solution to the formation of two countries in line with internationally agreed parameters," he said. The UN Decolonization Committee has previously approved a resolution on Palestine, which contains a request that the International Court (ICJ) provide opinions on Israel's longstanding occupation. Israel's actions, as stated in the resolution, constitute violations of the Palestinian right to self-determine its fate.
