In the previous episode of this series
We have discussed the three objectives of Netherlands military aggression 1
Also known as "Operation Product"
Even though they have received new territories
Overall, this aggression is considered a failure
In achieving its goals
In addition, this aggression
Also makes the Netherlands image among the international community worse
International community are starting to see the Netherlands
As a party that violates the Linggarjati agreement.
Even worse,
The Allied Nation which close to the Netherlands in World War 2
That is Australia
Began to oppose the action of the Netherlands
Together with India
They tried to force the Netherlands
Can reach a peace agreement
With the republic
This was followed by bringing this problem
To the UN's major international forums
The UN Security Council then responded
By forming a 3-state commission
Which consists of:
The first, Belgium
Which was chosen by the Netherlands
The second, Australia that chosen by Indonesia
And third, the United States
Those chosen by the two countries
Pressured by international community
The Netherlands and Indonesia finally announced a ceasefire
On August 4, 1947
With the end of this operation
The Netherlands managed to control several new territories
Like West Java and Madura,
And also, part of the region of East Sumatra, Central Java and East Java
Even so
Overall this aggression also failed
In destroying republican forces
And eliminate sovereignty from Indonesia
This made General Spoor
The highest Dutch military leader in the Indies
Directly sprayed by his boss
Governor General of the Dutch East Indies, Van Mook
The one who called it was failed
From the beginning, Van Mook wanted the Dutch military to be more careful
And don't be too aggressive in acting
He did not want to, damage the image of the Netherlands
In the international community
Nor does it damage the trust
From loyalists or pro-Netherlands in the Indies
Van Mook is a Dutchman
Who was born in the Indies
He supports the Indies or Indonesia
Can become a part of The Netherlands
Therefore, he really hopes
So that the people in the Indies
Can be persuaded and willing to cooperate with the Netherlands
While Spoor argued differently
As someone who has a military background
He feels this problem
It happened because of his rival, the leaders of the republic
Have military power
Therefore,
The Netherlands government must carry out a more aggressive war
So that the republican forces do not have time to recover
And can be destroyed immediately
He believes, in this way
The Netherlands goal will be achieved
With a faster time
Spoor often questions the seriousness of the Netherlands
Especially regarding the quantity and quality of the troops it has
The amount is too little compared to the area
Make Spoor have to divide the military
For various needs
Like, maintaining territory
Securing new territory,
Do anti-guerillia,
And carry out military operations
Besides that it is not uncommon
Spoor received various reports from his troops
Which states that they have missed the Netherlands very much
And think about the fate of their family there
As a commander who had served in the Indies
Spoor certainly knew, how much the sacrifice of his troops
In order to protect the most valuable Dutch colony
But by allowing them to go home
How Spoor had to behave with other troops
And how can he continue the war in the Indies
Without his troops.
Conflict like that
Not only happens in the Dutch camp
Rather, it also happened among the Indonesian freedom fighters
Netherlands Military Aggression 1
Which not able to resisted by the military republic
Making various urban areas
And the central economic area owned by Indonesia is decreasing
Based on the statement
The republican government, was forced to agree
With the Renville agreement
The contents are even heavier
When compared to the previous agreement
This agreement makes leaders in Indonesia more aware
That against the Netherlands
Which is supported by the allied faction
Especially in the military
Certainly not a good and wise decision
If Nazi Germany,
Italian fascist,
And the Japanese Empire are collapsed
Is there still hope for Indonesia?
Indonesian leaders
Especially Sutan Syahrir
Very aware of this thing
He believed against the Netherlands and Allied factions
It's the same as suicide
For him, Indonesia must succeed in achieving these 3 things
The first
Must be able to separate relations between the Netherlands
And the Allied faction
The second, ensuring only war against the Netherlands
And not against the Allied faction
And third, is trying to gain sympathy or support in the international community
Therefore, in the Linggarjati agreement
Syahrir, write an article
The content is:
Looks simple isn't it?
But this article makes Indonesia
Can win the war
With diplomatic way
This is not apart
From the background of Indonesian figures
Like, Syahrir and Hatta
Who had lived in the Netherlands
Therefore, they understand enough
How to think from the Netherlands and Europeans
Maybe you ask
In history
Europe is always filled with various conflicts
Where countries state competing with each other.
Are other European countries
Can allow
A small country like the Netherlands
Has a very large and rich colony?
Of course not, right?
Why is that?
Because in Europe
There is a concept known as:
"Strength Balance"
As an example
When Britain appears as the winner
In the 7-year war
And defeating both Spain and France
In the future, three European superpowers
Spain, France and the Netherlands
Trying to help America
In fighting for independence, against the British
Because they don't want to
Seeing British become too big and strong
After his victory in the 7-year war.
By eliminating 13 colonies from the British
They hope to inhibit the growth
And the development of British power
Therefore, it is not surprising
If in maintaining its independence
Starting from the Linggarjati agreement,
Renville Agreement,
Until the agreement at the Round Table Conference
the struggle of Indonesian diplomatically
Getting more sympathy and support
From the international community
Why the Indonesian leaders at that time
Successfully achieve and defend independence?
Why did the previous predecessors fail to do it?
One of the causes is they still not have
"National Awareness"
Where is the struggle of the previous figures
Generally still limited by:
Its territory, its class, or its kingdom
While after the ethical political era
And National Awakening
The youth who have received education
Start seeing himself as:
Indonesia
Apart from differences in ethnicity, religion, race and class
They managed to see
The Netherlands, even though it is only a small country
But due to unity,
Can defeat and colonize
The broad Indies
In the war of Indonesian independence
The Netherlands faced a national war
Like when British faced the American revolution
What is unique
Isn't the Netherlands, once passed a similar phase too
When they fight Spain
To maintain its independence
With these various introductions
The founders of Indonesia
Successfully achieve and maintain independence
A story, which teaches us all
How are the heroes,
Have paid dearly
To recognize the meaning of the word:
"Unity"
