  "account": "United Nations special rapporteur Francesca Albanese has urged Indonesia to reconsider its participation in the US President Trump's Gaza peace initiative known as the Board of Peace. Albanese, a prominent human rights lawyer, contends that the board, which Indonesia is a significant contributor to, lacks a Palestinian perspective and is being led by Israel and the United States. She argues that joining the board could jeopardize Indonesia's relationship with Palestinians, as it contradicts their close ties despite Indonesia's historical support for the Palestinian cause. The US has imposed sanctions on Albanese, and her native Italy has called for her resignation, despite acknowledging her good intentions. Albanese insists that Israel cannot hold a seat at the table when determining Palestinians' future, as it is illegal. She recommends that Indonesia join the Hague Group of countries, which advocates for international law and the International Criminal Court in addressing Israel's actions.",
