1. Dutch conditions for participation in UNCFI discussions -- 01i A - s
US Representative Cochran in Batavia has received from the
Netherlands delegation there a letter expressing the willing-
ness of the Dutch to participate in discussions with leaders
of the Indonesian Republic and UNCFI (the UN Commission
for Indonesia), as proposed by the UN Security Council on
23 March. The Netherlands letter indicated, however, that
Dutch acceptance is based on the understanding that such
discussions will not prejudice the rights, claims, and posi-
tions of the two parties and consequently will not prejudice
the responsibility of the Netherlands for "freedom and order
in Indonesia." Representative Cochran expressed his dis-
appointment over the reference to Dutch responsibilities in
this reply and expressed his fear that such a reference might
cause the Republicans to impose conditions on their acceptance.
(CIA Comment: The proposed Netherlands-Indonesian
discussions with UNCFI are to be held for the purpose of assist-
ing the parties in removing the obstacles --primarily the question
of restoring the Republicans to authority in Jogjakarta - -to the
holding of a conference at The Hague on the over-all Indonesian
problem. CIA believes that the Republicans are already seriously
considering refusing to attend the UNCF1 meetings and shares
Representative Cochran's view that the Dutch reply may lead to
Republican conditions on acceptance.)
