At the beginning of the establishment of the United Nations, there were many conflicts that occurred in countries that were at odds with each other. Indonesia wants the United Nations to be neutral and fair in dealing with the conflicts that occur.
Indonesia, represented by Ir. Soekarno, felt that the UN headquarters being in the United States meant that there was bias towards a certain bloc at the time and wanted to move it to a non-aligned area, so that the UN was indirectly involved.
Soekarno declared his departure from the UN in January 1965 because the UN was deemed unable to act fairly on disputes between Indonesia and Malaysia.
However, Indonesia re-entered the United Nations on September 19, 1966, as a member of the 60th Conference under Suharto.
