Jakarta wants Russia to stop recruiting Indonesians to fight in the war. South China Morning Post Jakarta called on Moscow to stop recruiting Indonesians to participate in hostilities in Ukraine. On Sunday, Indonesian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Yvonne Mabankeng said: "The Indonesian government has asked the Russian government to take all necessary measures to ensure that no Indonesian is recruited into the Russian armed forces or other positions related to military service in Russia, in any way." According to analysts, this call could be ineffective unless President Pravo Sovianto puts direct pressure on Vladimir Putin.
