Jakarta : President Joko Widodo said that the open wars and massacres that have occurred in the modern era are completely beyond reason and conscience.
"It really doesn't make sense, it really doesn't enter our conscience, in today's super modern world there are still open wars and massacres," said Joko Widodo in his speech at the R20 International Summit of Religious Authorities (ISORA ) in Jakarta, Monday.
President Widodo emphasized that what was happening in Palestine was an open practice of massacre that claimed the lives of civilians, including women and children.
He emphasized that the humanitarian tragedy in Palestine cannot be tolerated in the slightest.
"The massacre (occurring in Palestine) is openly taking (the lives of) civilians, taking (the lives of) women and children. A ceasefire must be implemented immediately, humanitarian assistance must be accelerated, and peace negotiations must begin immediately," he stressed. .
The President said that Indonesia believes that independence is the right of all nations and this is clearly stated in the Indonesian constitution.
Indonesia, said Jokowi, also has long experience in knitting diversity and bridging differences and in uniting diversity.
"Currently, Indonesia's population is almost 280 million, consisting of 714 tribes, with more than 1,300 local or regional languages. They adhere to different religions and live on the 17,000 islands that we have. It is not an easy thing to unite them, but we can, " he explained.
He said that Indonesia was grateful to be able to erode tribal egos, religious egos and regional egos, so that it was able to realize Bhinneka Tunggal Ika.
" Unity in diversity . Where this will not be able to be realized if it is not supported by religious teachings, it will not be able to be realized if it is not supported by religious leaders, who teach that love of the Motherland is part of faith, tolerance for differences is part from faith, and maintaining unity is also part of faith," said Jokowi.
The President emphasized that Indonesia believes the role of religion, religious figures and society is very important in creating peace, harmony and togetherness both within a country, in the region and in the world.
"Therefore, I really appreciate, I really appreciate the holding of this forum, let us make it a dialogue between religions, across nations to bridge differences and stop all forms of disputes so that we can create a peaceful, harmonious and prosperous world together," he said while inaugurating the R20 ISORA opening.
