Your Excellency,
Recalling that Indonesia illegally invaded the national territory of East Timor in 1975 and continuously and illegally occupied that territory until 1999;
Recalling that during the illegal occupation, widespread crimes against humanity and human rights violations were committed by the Indonesian state and its proxies against the people of East Timor;
