Transfer of sovereignty over Indonesia 1949

The Dutch–Indonesian Round Table Conference was held in The Hague from 23 August to 2 November 1949, between representatives of the Netherlands, the Republic of Indonesia and the BFO (Federal Consultative Assembly) representing various states the Dutch had created in the Indonesian archipelago. Prior to this conference, three other high-level meetings between the Netherlands and Indonesia took place; the Linggadjati Agreement (1947), the Renville Agreement (1948), and the Roem-van Roijen Agreement (1949). The conference ended with the Netherlands agreeing to transfer sovereignty to the United States of Indonesia.

Acceptance speech Mohammed Hatta:

As the leader of the delegation of the Republic of Indonesia, I am delighted and happy to accept sovereignty over Indonesia on behalf of the Republic of the United States of Indonesia, just read by the secretary of the Council of Ministers. I hope that relations between our two countries, which have been established in an union on the basis of complete freedom, equality and voluntariness, will develop which will lead to the prosperity and happiness of our both nations.
