Berikut isi pernyataan lengkap mereka. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D CONSELHO NACIONAL DA RESIST=D2NCIA TIMORENSE NATIONAL COUNCIL OF TIMORESE RESISTANCE (CNRT) PEMUDA TIMOR LESTE Indonesia, 14th April 1999. TO: Her Excellency, Mrs. Medeleine K. Albraight Secretary of State of the United States of America Washington, DC Her Excellency, On behalf of young generation of our oppressed People, we, the East Timorese Youth come before you to remind Her Excellency and your government to pay a piece of your sense of humanity to our beloved People which is facing an endless tragedy perpetrated by Indonesia military and its armed militias. As integral part of our People we are obliged to, by all means, protect and voice out the deepest aspirations of our People. We call upon the government of The United States of America and its allies to put the same attention and reaction to the fate of East Timorese People which is massacring by invaders army, Indonesian Armed Forces (ABRI). Still fresh in our mind, when Her Excellency greet our Leader, Commander of FALINTIL Xanana Gusmao, in Jacarta a couple of weeks ago. In our opinion, that meeting was a de facto recognition of your government toward the long struggle of Maubere People against the Indonesia's shameful and illegal occupation over our Motherland. Her Excellency also use the opportunity by giving promises and efforts of Her Excellency "to take resolute steps in purpose to break off the circle of violation on the ground" and urges the need to stabilize the situation by disarming all the paramilitary forces". Your government also agreed with "the efforts of confidence building measures among the interesting parties by reducing the number of Indonesian troops, the presence of international institutions in order to avoid violence in the future" Your promises and efforts seem to be mere lip service. Hundreds of East Timorese have died since the important meeting between Her Excellency and our Leader, but there has been no action taken by your government and its allies to materialize your promises. The barbarous murder of the East Timorese people committed by Indonesian army and its paramilitaries has not been properly addressed, particularly the recent massacre which took place in Liquica on 5th and 6th of April 1999. Officially, the United States of America is urging the government of Indonesia to respect the international norms of relationship based on the spirit to build New World Order. Nevertheless, based on the recent facts facing by East Timorese People, this policy merely just an attitude of hypocrisy. Although were under massive acts of oppression, we could see how The United States and its allies take immediate reaction to various political conflicts around the world such as the case of Kuwait, Iraq, Bosnia and recent reaction taken by NATO in Kosovo. Do the East Timorese People does not deserve a proper attention of international community as you stated during the meeting with our Leader Xanana Gusm=C6o? =20 In order to promote and protect the value of human being as has been always voicing by The United States, now it is the right time to your government to materialize it in concrete efforts by: 1. Pressing the dictatorship regime of Indonesia to stop all its barbarous atrocities and massive killings against East Timorese People. 2. Urging the international community to take concrete steps to find a just, democratic and internationally acceptable solution for East Timor problem based upon the fundamental aspirations of East Timorese People. Regarding the important role played by United Stated as permanent member of United Nations Security Council, it was reasonable for United States to take a real role in promoting the presence of international community in East Timor in order to create a conducive climate as pre-condition to guarantee the process of direct popular consultation which is promoting by United= Nations. Expecting that this moral appeal could break the wall of western unbalanced attitude towards East Timor case, in order to realize the collective ideal to build a better world.=20 Sincerely, Representatives of East Timorese Youth signed signed 1.
