• Title:
  Indonesia Aggression of East Timor, A Violation of Political Policy??
• Creator:
  Ayunitias, Joana Meila
• Description:
  Indonesia launched an aggression to East Timor at the end of 1970-s. For years, Indonesia has justified the aggression as an act to protect its interest. The papers tries to see if this justification is indeed a national interest or merely an individual interest that affects the national and foreign policy. Using neoclassical realism, this paper argues that a complex interaction between individual's ambitions and international support has pushed the aggression to full scale military operations in the 1970-s East Timor. ;
  Indonesia’s aggression towards East Timor started in 1974 and lasted for more than two decades. There was none to little interventions by the international governments during the first two years of the aggression which caused its long period. Indonesia’s decision to intervene in East Timor’s independence met with reluctant diplomatic response by the international world as East Timor’s winning political party used communism as its ideology. Neoclassical realism is used to analyze the domestic situation and how it was later translated into international response in Indonesia’s aggression to East Timor. East Timor’s aggression is a systemic result of an individual’s obsession and matched with international ignorance – especially the West in this regard. At the end of the day, East Timor was a victim of both Indonesia’s foreign policy and ideological war during the Cold War.
