The U.S. military strike on Venezuela is deeply regrettable, as it contradicts the very principles of sovereignty and multilateralism that America has long championed. As a self-proclaimed guardian of global democracy, this unilateral action raises serious questions about their consistency, especially in today’s multipolar world where Russia’s and China’s influence in Latin America is growing stronger. It risks sparking widespread instability, compelling nations like Indonesia to navigate our national interests more strategically, rather than simply following ideological currents.
What happens to Venezuela also sets a precedent for other developing countries. It goes beyond a violation of sovereignty. It’s a deliberate effort to restrict the Global South’s freedom to manage its own resources. We must bolster solidarity among developing nations to safeguard the non-intervention principles we have long fought for.
The weaknesses of multilateral diplomacy, such as through the UN or the OAS, are becoming all too evident, rendering soft approaches like the ASEAN Way less effective against direct confrontations. It’s time for us to develop a more proactive diplomacy, including networks with non-state actors for effective mediation, rather than a passive neutrality that leaves us vulnerable as collateral damage.
This strike could also serve as a catalyst for reforming global governance from a Southern perspective. Indonesia has the opportunity to lead initiatives at the UN to amplify the voices of developing countries, particularly on strategic resources. This isn’t merely a moral response, but a survival strategy in a fragmented world, emphasizing leadership that builds bridges rather than yielding to destructive powers. •••

Major Sean Glass a US Navy Seal who joined the IDF has been named as the man who ordered the murder of Hind Rajab and caused 355 bullets to be put into her. This is him:
NEW: Israeli soldier Sean Glass was the one who gave the order to execute Hind Rajab with 355 bullets!
Al-Jazeera has obtained exclusive documents revealing the identity of Israeli soldiers who killed 5-year-old Palestinian girl Hind Rajab in January 2024 with over 355 bullets.
According to Al-Jazeera, Israeli soldiers Sean Glass and Itay Shukrikov, from the 52nd Battalion of the 401st 'Iron Tracks' Armored Brigade, murdered Hind Rajab, her family, and the paramedics who rushed to the scene.
This little girl may have been among those who celebrated the ceasefire, but an airstrike targeted her home in Al-Bureij camp, ending her dreams and her life together.
Safety is fragile... and the war reminds Gaza of its brutality once more.
