Q & A

  • What was the main reason for holding the Renville negotiations?

    -The main reason for holding the Renville negotiations was the first Dutch Military Aggression against the Republic of Indonesia, which began on July 21, 1947. This aggression violated the Linggarjati Agreement, which had recognized Indonesia's sovereignty over Java, Sumatra, and Madura.

  • What was the significance of the Van Mook line in the context of the Renville negotiations?

    -The Van Mook line was a demarcation line unilaterally set by the Netherlands during their military aggression. It defined the areas under Dutch control, including parts of Java, Sumatra, and Madura, and it became a key point of contention during the Renville negotiations.

  • Why did the United Nations intervene in the Indonesian-Dutch conflict?

    -The United Nations intervened because the Dutch military aggression disturbed international peace. In response, the UN issued a resolution on August 1, 1947, calling for a ceasefire and the involvement of a commission to help resolve the conflict.

  • Why were the Renville negotiations held on a ship instead of on land?

    -The negotiations were held on a ship to avoid any party controlling the territory where the meeting would take place. A ship anchored outside the three-mile zone was chosen to ensure neutrality, and the U.S. provided the USS Renville troop transport ship for this purpose.

  • Who were the members of the three-nation commission (KTN), and what was their role?

    -The three-nation commission (KTN) consisted of representatives from the Netherlands, Indonesia, and a third neutral party.

The KTN was tasked with helping to resolve the dispute between the two countries.

  • What was the role of local representatives in the Dutch delegation during the Renville negotiations?

  • What did the Christmas message from Teten in December 1947 aim to achieve?

    -The major outcomes of the Renville negotiations included the signing of a peace agreement consisting of ceasefire articles, political agreements, and additional principles.

  • How did the Renville negotiations impact Indonesia politically?
