"The war between Ukraine and Russia is also related to terrorism issues," he noted in an online discussion titled "Early Detection of Radicalism Movement Development Method" on Monday.
On one side, someone claimed that ISIS is involved in the war as mercenaries. As a result, the ongoing condition is related to the global security political map, he expounded.
Due to this, there has been an escalation of the ISIS' movement that is related to the war between Ukraine and Russia, he stated.
In addition to this, the impact of the war between the two countries also potentially causes serious economic crisis.
"Hence, we will see how resilient Indonesia is in handling it," he noted.
Based on several releases issued by many countries, they believed that the threat of the food and energy crisis looms large in the future, he stated.
Looking at Europe and the United States, the price of gasoline is already above two euro, or around Rp40 thousand per liter, he highlighted.
This means the ongoing war causes scarcity of oil and gas. In this condition, Indonesia will be tested in handling threats that occur in several European countries and the United states.
The food, gas, and oil crisis threat may potentially be utilized by the terrorism group to sow negative narratives, he cautioned.
"Hence, a gap within the public service can be an entryway for the development of hostility against the state," he affirmed.
Despite this, Indonesia should be grateful, as it is still capable of maintaining the price stability of fuel oil, including of nine basic necessities, he remarked.
"On the other side of the world, there is anxiety, especially as winter draws near and gas scarcity can cause major problems," he noted.
