The Jakarta Post:
While conceding that its efforts might have a limited impact on the Middle East, the government has aimed high in its diplomatic efforts to address the tension in Syria amid possible military action by the US.
The latest efforts by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono included direct calls to like-minded nations as well as all members of the UN Security Council, to seek an alternative solution amid the opacity of the UN’s diplomatic efforts.
“Indonesia has been sending letters to leaders of like-minded nations, including ASEAN members and major players in the Asia Pacific and Latin America, as well as UN Security Council members,” presidential spokesman for foreign affairs Teuku Faizasyah told The Jakarta Post on Monday.
