It seems extraordinary to me that the grant of 42 protection visas against the wishes of the Indonesian government can be classed as appeasement. But then I saw who made that interjection and I thought, ‘Yes, you are intellectually capable of coming to that conclusion. You are intellectually capable of deciding that giving 42 visas to the West Papuan Indonesians against the wishes of the Indonesian government should be classified as appeasement.’ You take the cake!
