Indonesia Supports US–Iran Peace Talks

Indonesia has welcomed planned talks between the United States and Iran in Islamabad, calling the move “encouraging” and a good step toward peace.

A spokesperson from Indonesia’s Foreign Ministry said the talks help keep communication open and create a chance for diplomacy. The country is urging all sides to stay calm, respect each other’s borders, and focus on dialogue instead of conflict.

These talks come shortly after Pakistan helped arrange a 14-day ceasefire, temporarily stopping more than a month of fighting. The conflict began on February 28 when the U.S. and Israel launched attacks on Iran, leading to thousands of deaths, including Ali Khamenei.

Pakistan worked with countries like Türkiye, China, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt to make this ceasefire happen.

The U.S. delegation is led by JD Vance, while Iran is represented by Bagher Qalibaf. The meeting is expected to begin soon once the U.S. team arrives.

Indonesia also criticized ongoing Israeli attacks in Beirut and other parts of Lebanon, warning that such actions could harm peace efforts and increase tensions.

Overall, Indonesia stressed that continued conflict could affect not just the region, but also global stability, trade routes, and energy supplies.
