Indonesia's Prabowo 'Surprised' by Iran War, US Bombing Won't Spark Regime Change
Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto expressed surprise over the ongoing war between Iran and the US, emphasizing that he does not see any 'rationality' in the military campaign. He called for all parties to seek a peaceful resolution and urged caution in their approaches to the conflict.
Prabowo, a retired general and current leader of the world's largest Muslim-majority nation, highlighted Iran's concerns about being tricked in negotiations and the need to survive asymmetrical warfare. He also questioned the effectiveness of US bombing in achieving regime change, suggesting it would require more than just air strikes.
He further discussed his role in international efforts for peace, including his involvement with the 'Board of Peace' initiative and his hesitation to send peacekeeping troops to Gaza. Prabowo remains committed to a two-state solution for Palestine and has doubts about the US strategy in Iran.
