Indonesia has no desire to develop either nuclear weapons or conducting nuclear tests.

Indonesia
therefore supports the efforts of the international community to achieve universality of the CTBT as
undisputable evidence of the collective desire of the international community to regulate the use, and to
finally have the total elimination of, nuclear weapons.

In that regard, Indonesia has ratified the Treaty on 6 February 2012. The ratification is a form of
Indonesia's contribution in maintaining world order based on freedom, lasting peace and social justice in
accordance with the mandate of the 1945 Constitution.

The Indonesian Government considers the CWC as an example of multilaterally-agreed framework in

dismantling weapons of mass destruction and is a model of export-import control regime which both
agreed multilaterally. CWC has three important pillars namely: the destruction of chemical weapons that
still exist in accordance with the timeline specified; continued improvement of the nonproliferation of
chemical weapons by OPCW and States Parties, such as through a verification mechanism; and lastly, the
guarantee of international cooperation and assistance (ICA).

In connection to the destruction of chemical weapons, Indonesia considers that the main objective of
CWC is the total destruction of chemical weapons, especially to countries in possession of chemical
weapons. Therefore, Indonesia would gravely concern if the implementation of the destruction of
chemical weapons is proven to be slow-paced, and incompatible with the stages of elimination within
the agreed predetermined timeframe. Destruction of chemical weapons should always be the main
priority of the OPCW.

Indonesia's diplomacy in this issue are directed to the total destruction of nuclear weapons. Therefore,
the position of Indonesia, together with the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), in a range of nuclear-related
discussions geared towards this goal. Indonesia always assume a supportive stance on the efforts of the
international community to promote non-proliferation and nuclear disarmament. In this regard,
Indonesia stressed the importance of multilateralism as a "core principle" in negotiations on non-
proliferation and disarmament, and insists that achievement of the goals of non-proliferation and
disarmament should be taken in ways that "lawful" under applicable international law and in under the
framework of the United Nations.

Since 1994 Indonesia is the Coordinator of the Working Group (WG) Disarmament NAM. As Coordinator
of the Working Group, Indonesia has been coordinating the joint position of the NAM countries in
various forums and mechanism of disarmament within the UN system, most primarily in Committee I,
the United Nations on Disarmament Commission (UNDC) and the Conference on Disarmament (CD) and
other multilateral forums. Indonesia believes that the issue of nuclear disarmament and non-
proliferation should be addressed through an agreed multilateral framework.
