SINGAPORE: Indonesia’s officials and diplomatic figures said the country may withdraw from the Board of Peace if the US-backed diplomatic initiative fails to advance Palestinian independence.

The remarks came after President Prabowo Subianto’s two-day engagement with political, religious and foreign policy stakeholders to clarify Jakarta’s stance and manage domestic sensitivities over its participation in the board.
