Letter from Étienne Raux to Georges Bidault on the situation in Indonesia (Batavia, 22 June 1947)
Text On 22 June 1947, the French General Consul in Batavia, Étienne Raux, informs the French Foreign Minister, Georges Bidault, about the situation in Indonesia. He particularly focuses on the response of Indonesian leaders to the memorandum sent on 27 May by the acting Governor-General of the Netherlands East Indies, Hubertus Johannes van Mook, to the Prime Minister of the Republic of Indonesia, Sutan Sjahrir. Even though the Indonesians have made major concessions, for example accepting the establishment of an interim government, the Dutch are not satisfied with the Indonesian reaction.
