My question is to the foreign minister. Minister, when Donald Trump announced that the US would recognise Jerusalem and relocate the US embassy, it was universally condemned by almost every sane democracy. To name a few examples, Sweden called it 'a catastrophic decision' and New Zealand said it was 'a step backwards, not a step forwards'. Minister, I understand that you briefed the Indonesian government on this announcement. What was the response from the Indonesian government?
