  • Kopassus (Komando Pasukan Khusus) ist eine Spezialeinheit des Heeres der indonesischen Streitkräfte. Ihr Hauptquartier befindet sich in im Osten von Jakarta. Die etwa 5000 Mann starke Truppe wird unter anderem bei Sabotage, für militärische Aufklärung, bei Entführung oder für Geiselbefreiung eingesetzt. Neben dem strategischen Heereskommando Kostrad ist sie das zweite Machtzentrum des Militärs in Indonesien und war seit ihrer Gründung in allen Krisen aktiv an Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit beteiligt, angefangen von der Bekämpfung der 1950 auf den Molukken ausgerufenen Republik Maluku Selatan, dem Massenmord an der eigenen Bevölkerung 1965/66 und anschließender Militärdiktatur unter Suharto, bis zu Operationen in Osttimor und anderen Krisenregionen, wie Aceh oder Westneuguinea. Bei diesen Einsätzen wurde immer wieder von internationalen Beobachtern auf Verwicklungen in schwere Menschenrechtsverletzungen und Unterstützung paramilitärischer Gruppen durch Kopassus hingewiesen.

  • The Kopassus (Indonesian: Komando Pasukan Khusus, Special Forces Command) is an Indonesian Army (TNI-AD) special forces group that conducts special operations missions for the Indonesian government, such as direct action, unconventional warfare, sabotage, counter-insurgency, counter-terrorism, intelligence gathering and special reconnaissance (SR). Kopassus was founded by Alexander Evert Kawilarang and Mochammad Idjon Djanbi on 16 April 1952. It gained worldwide attention after several operations such as the Indonesian invasion of East Timor and the release of hostages from Garuda Indonesia Flight 206. The special forces spearheaded some of the government's military campaigns: putting down regional rebellions in the late 1950s, the Operation Trikora (Western New Guinea campaign) in 1961–1962, the Indonesia-Malaysia Confrontation from 1962–1966, the massacres of alleged communists in 1965, the East Timor invasion in 1975, and subsequent campaigns against separatists in various provinces. Kopassus has been reported by national and international media, human rights-affiliated NGOs and researchers to have committed violations of human rights in East Timor, Aceh, Papua and Java. In 2019, the United States announced that it would conduct a combined exercise training with Kopassus in 2020. The US had ended links with Kopassus in 1999 as the Leahy Law banned assistance to foreign military units with a history of human rights violations until those responsible are prosecuted. Kopassus has introduced internal reforms and undertaken human rights courses with the International Committee of the Red Cross. In 2018, US Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis said he wanted to lift the ban as Kopassus had reformed and removed human rights abusive soldiers. In response, Senator Patrick Leahy said Mattis needs to establish whether Kopassus has punished officers and is today "accountable to the rule of law". Human Rights Watch criticised plans to lift the ban as Kopassus officers had not been prosecuted. (en)
