Menlu RI Tegas Bantah Dukung Aliansi Militer Saudi

Selasa, 15 Desember 2015 | 11:57

[JAKARTA] Menteri Luar Negeri Retno Marsudi membantah bahwa Indonesia memberi dukungan atas pembentukan aliansi militer buatan Arab Saudi untuk melawan terorisme. Retno menegaskan Indonesia memiliki garis politik luar negeri yang jelas untuk tidak ikut dalam aliansi militer apa pun.

Retno mengatakan komunikasinya dengan Menlu Arab Saudi, Adel Al-Jubeir, dilakukan terakhir kali hari Senin (14/12) malam. Menurutnya, inisiatif awal yang disebutkan Saudi adalah pembentukan international center for countering terrorism (pusat internasional untuk melawan terorisme), bukan sebuah aliansi militer.

“Tidak benar (mendukung aliansi militer) Dalam beberapa hari ini komunikasi memang dilakukan. Hal pertama yang ditanyakan oleh Indonesia adalah masalah modalitasnya (terkait pembentukaninternational center),” kata Retno saat dihubungi SP di Jakarta, Selasa (15/12) pagi.

Retno mengaku tidak tahu adanya perubahan dari pembentukan pusat internasional menjadi sebuah aliansi militer. “Mohon ditanyakan ke Saudi,” katanya.

Menurutnya, Indonesia mendesak Saudi menjelaskan masalah modalitas untuk pusat internasional agar bisa menyelaraskan dengan kepentingan politik dalam negeri. Tapi, Saudi ternyata bermaksud lain yaitu membentuk kekuatan militer baru dengan meminta dukungan negara-negara Islam termasuk Indonesia.

“Oleh karena itu mengenai modalitas sangat penting artinya bagi Indonesia untuk memahami apakah inisiatif tersebut sejalan dengan politik luar negeri dan kepentingan kita,” kata Retno.

Kantor berita Pemerintah Saudi, SPA, Senin malam, mengeluarkan pernyataan yang menyebutkan 33 negara Islam telah memutuskan untuk membentuk sebuah aliansi militer dalam rangka melawan terorisme yang dipimpin oleh Kerajaan Arab Saudi. Pusat operasi bersama akan dibangun di Kota Riyadh untuk berkoordinasi dan mendukung operasi militer melawan terorisme, serta membangun program-progaram dan mekanisme untuk mendukung upaya itu.

Negara-negara Islam yang diklaim berpartisipasi dalam aliansi militer bentukan Saudi itu antara lain Malaysia, Yordania, Uni Emirat Arab, Pakistan, Palestina, Libia, Mesir, Turki, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Lebanon, Kuwait, Qatar, dan sejumlah negara mayoritas Muslim di Afrika.

Pernyataan itu menambahkan lebih dari 10 negara Islam, termasuk di dalamnya Indonesia, juga telah menyatakan dukungannya atas pembentukan aliansi militer tersebut dan akan mengambil langkah-langkah yang diperlukan terkait hal itu. [C-5/L-8]

Jakarta wants military deals to add value : Tokyo

Indonesian Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi will push technology transfers in military procurement during her upcoming talks in Tokyo.

JAKARTA -- Indonesia no longer wants to just buy military hardware from other countries, and expects technology transfer and sustainability to be a condition of future deals.

Any military procurement must "give added value to Indonesia", Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi told the Nikkei Asian Review in Jakarta on Tuesday. Adding value means augmenting both Indonesian military capacity and technology.

"If possible, we have to enable joint production in the future so that Indonesia will not continue to depend on other countries," said Marsudi. She said future military deals will only be with partners who embrace this approach.

"If you agree with these principles, let's do this together," said Marsudi. "If not, forget it. Our policy is to empower our own strategic industries. We already have some -- they are very productive and have started exporting."

The minister was speaking a day ahead of a trip to Tokyo for Indonesia and Japan's first '2+2' talks, which also involve Defense Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu and their Japanese counterparts.

Earlier this month, Indonesia inked an agreement with South Korea for state-owned aircraft manufacturer Dirgantara Indonesia and Korea Aerospace Industries to jointly develop experimental jet fighters. Technology transfer was also key to a purchase agreement for three submarines from South Korea last year.

Concerning regional security issues, Marsudi said Indonesia remains neutral amid rising tensions in the South China Sea, and reminded that its extended archipelago has no overlapping territorial claims with China. Indonesia, the minister said, wants its disputant neighbors to agree on a code of conduct to regulate their behavior in this "strategic" region.

On terrorism in the wake of the Nov. 13 attacks in Paris, Marsudi said Indonesia continues to participate in the global war on terror. Having dealt with several terrorism incidents post 9-11 in 2001, she said it has emerged as a "center of excellence" for regional counterterrorism efforts.

The minister emphasized the need for "comprehensive approaches" that balance hard power with religious and culturally-sensitive approaches. An example is the Indonesian state's improved partnership with the Nahdlatul Ulama and the Muhammadiyah, the country's two main Muslim organizations.

"Security measures should not [mean] blindly attacking," said Marsudi. "Counterterrorism doesn't always have to mean direct armed confrontations. Promoting tolerance and pluralism is equally important -- this is what differentiates Indonesia from other nations."

The Jakarta Center for Law Enforcement Cooperation deals with transnational crimes, including terrorism, people smuggling and drug trafficking. It has trained 18,000 law enforcement officers from other countries in Southeast Asia since opening in 2004, according to Marsudi.
