We will do all to ensure that people in West Papua, their human rights will be respected.


Question: Does a human rights fact-finding mission has be dispatched  to West Papua at some time?

BKM:  That is the same answer [to a previous question on Fiji] that should be discussed at the Human Rights Council amongst the member states.
