Indonesia, Jordan Urge Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza Amid Escalating Conflict

5 Min Read 198.8k Views

The Republic of Indonesia and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan issued a joint call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza on Monday, condemning Israel’s prolonged military offensive and urging international intervention to halt the humanitarian catastrophe. The appeal followed high-level talks between Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto and Jordan’s King Abdullah II during a two-day state visit to Amman on April 13–14, 2025, marking Indonesia’s first presidential trip to the region since the Gaza conflict reignited in late 2023.

Diplomatic Push for Peace
In a press conference at Al-Husseiniya Palace, President Prabowo emphasized that ending the violence in Palestine was central to discussions. “Indonesia and Jordan stand united in demanding an urgent cessation of hostilities. The indiscriminate bombing of civilians, displacement of millions, and destruction of critical infrastructure must stop now,” he stated. The leaders endorsed a UN-backed resolution to enforce a ceasefire, facilitate humanitarian aid, and revive stalled negotiations for a two-state solution.

King Abdullah II echoed these sentiments, stressing Jordan’s role as a custodian of Jerusalem’s Muslim and Christian holy sites. “The international community’s silence is complicity. We cannot normalize a reality where Palestinian lives are treated as collateral,” he asserted. The monarch also warned that regional stability hinges on resolving the Palestinian issue, citing rising tensions across the Middle East.

Humanitarian Crisis Deepens
The talks coincided with alarming reports from Gaza, where over 38,000 Palestinians have been killed since October 2023, including 12,000 children, according to UN agencies. Nearly 85% of Gaza’s 2.3 million residents remain displaced, with famine conditions worsening due to blocked aid deliveries. Indonesia and Jordan announced a joint humanitarian initiative, including a $50 million aid package for medical supplies, food, and water purification systems. Jakarta further pledged to deploy a field hospital via the Indonesian Medical Emergency Rescue Committee (MER-C), replicating its efforts during earlier conflicts.

However, both nations stressed that aid alone cannot substitute for political action. “Charity without justice is a Band-Aid on a bullet wound,” said Indonesian Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi, who accompanied Prabowo. “We must address the root cause: Israel’s occupation and systemic denial of Palestinian rights.”

Regional and Global Repercussions
The Amman meeting signals growing frustration among Muslim-majority nations and Global South states over Western powers’ perceived inaction. Indonesia, the world’s third-largest democracy and a non-permanent UN Security Council (UNSC) member, has emerged as a vocal advocate for Palestine, leveraging its leadership in the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) and Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). Jordan, a key U.S. ally and one of only two Arab states with a peace treaty with Israel, faces domestic pressure as protests erupt over its gas and water deals with Tel Aviv.

Analysts note the collaboration underscores shifting alliances. “Indonesia and Jordan bridge ideological divides—Jakarta champions anti-colonial solidarity, while Amman balances pragmatism with pan-Arab obligations,” said Middle East expert Dr. Lina Khatib. “Their partnership could galvanize ASEAN, OIC, and moderate Arab states to form a unified front.”

Obstacles to Resolution
Despite the diplomatic push, challenges loom. Israel has rejected previous ceasefire proposals, vowing to continue its campaign until Hamas is “dismantled.” The U.S., while recently critical of civilian casualties, continues to supply military aid to Israel, casting doubt on UNSC consensus. Meanwhile, Hamas insists any truce must include permanent Israeli withdrawal and prisoner exchanges—a nonstarter for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s far-right coalition.

President Prabowo hinted at potential workarounds, including bilateral pressure on Western capitals and mass mobilization at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), where Indonesia supports South Africa’s genocide case against Israel. Jordan, meanwhile, is rallying Arab League support to suspend Israel from international forums.

Global Reactions
The joint statement drew praise from Türkiye, Malaysia, and Egypt but sharp criticism from Israel, which accused both nations of “rewarding terrorism.” U.S. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller reiterated Washington’s focus on “negotiations, not unilateral mandates,” while China and Russia endorsed the ceasefire call, urging multilateral dialogue.

Path Forward
With no endgame in sight, Indonesia and Jordan plan to table a formal resolution at the UNSC by May 2025. Prabowo also announced plans to tour OIC nations to consolidate support. “History will judge us not by our words, but our actions,” he declared.

As global powers remain gridlocked, the Amman initiative tests whether mid-sized states can shift the tide. For Gaza’s civilians, the stakes have never been higher.
