"The statement issued Monday by the foreign ministers of eight Muslim-majority countries endorsed Trump's 20-point plan that was introduced on September 29. The countries vowed to "engage constructively" with the US and all other parties to "finalize and implement the agreement." Despite the political leadership of much of the Islamic world supporting the plan, the Hamas Islamist militant group, which carried out the October 7 terror attacks on Israel that sparked the current conflict, has not issued a response. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accepted the plan."
"However, in his speech to the United Nations General Assembly last week, Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto said, surprisingly, "we must also recognize and guarantee the safety and security of Israel," while calling for an independent Palestinian state. "Only then can we have real peace: peace without hate, peace without suspicion." Prabowo also said Indonesia would be willing to contribute 20,000 troops in any UN-backed mission "to secure peace in Gaza.""
Indonesia and Pakistan joined Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar and other Muslim-majority countries in endorsing US President Donald Trump's 20-point plan to end the Gaza war. Foreign ministers of eight Muslim-majority countries pledged to engage constructively with the US and all parties to finalize and implement the agreement. Hamas has not responded to the plan, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accepted it. Indonesia and Pakistan repeatedly called for an end to the war and condemned Gaza's humanitarian crisis, with over 65,000 Palestinians estimated killed. Neither country maintains normalized ties with Israel; recognition requires Israeli recognition of a Palestinian state. Indonesian President Prabowo offered 20,000 troops for a UN-backed mission and urged security guarantees for Israel alongside an independent Palestinian state. A CSIS researcher described Indonesia's endorsement as a geopolitical win.
