Viewing cable 07JAKARTA805, DEMARCHES TO INDONESIA ON ZIMBABWE

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

SUBJECT: DEMARCHES TO INDONESIA ON ZIMBABWE 
 
REF: A. STATE 223284 (PRESSING HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL) 
     B. STATE 34009 (BUILDING INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT) 
 
1. (U) We raised the situation in Zimbabwe in a March 21 
meeting with Heru Santoso and Dicky Yunus of the Indonesian 
Department of Foreign Affairs' Human Rights Directorate, per 
reftels.  We urged the GOI to publicly condemn the Zimbabwe 
regime's violence against the opposition and to support 
urgent Human Rights Council action on the matter.  Santoso 
and Yunus agreed to review the issue and to refer it to the 
head of their directorate for a decision.  We stressed that 
the credibility of the Human Rights Council was at stake. 
 
2. (SBU) Comment.  The Indonesians have first-hand experience 
of President Mugabe's volatility and animus towards the West. 
 In 2005, he attended a conference in Jakarta commemorating 
the 50th anniversary of the Bandung Conference at which he 
launched a tirade against the U.S. and U.K.  Nevertheless, 
the Indonesians have a strong aversion in principle to 
"naming and shaming" specific countries, and we doubt they 
will have much to say about this subject, either in Jakarta 
or Geneva.  End comment.
