Member of House Commission I handling international relations, Muhammad Nadjib, said on a press release here on Tuesday that Indonesia objected to an article in the treaty which state arm producing countries have the right to assess the implementation of human rights protection in buying countries.
"Those article is highly subjective and is made in favor of the political interest of big countries. We also believe arm producing countries conduct double standard in implementing the treaty," he said.
Other article which Indonesian parliament members feel objected to is the presence of a clause about arm producing countries can embargo the shipping of ammunition and supporting components to Indonesia if the latter is considered to have violate human rights.
"Such embargo will paralyze our weaponry system which we have bought in a high price," Nadjib added. (*/M038)
