Strategi Diplomasi Qatar dalam Kesepakatan Pertukaran Tawanan antara Hamas-Israel pada November 2023

Aulia Ul Khair, Dina Yulianti, Windy Dermawan

Abstrak


Perang antara Israel dan milisi-milisi perlawanan Gaza, yang dipimpin oleh Hamas, sejak Oktober 2023 telah melibatkan keberadaan tawanan, baik dari pihak Israel maupun Palestina. Artikel ini membahas strategi diplomasi Qatar dalam kesepakatan pertukaran tawanan sebagai salah satu bagian dari persetujuan gencatan senjata empat hari yang dijalin antara Hamas dan Israel pada November 2023. Tercapainya kesepakatan gencatan senjata, termasuk di dalamnya pertukaran sandera, merupakan hasil dari kebijakan luar negeri Qatar yang memosisikan diri sebagai middle power yang netral. Dalam upaya menjalin gencatan senjata ini, Qatar telah menggunakan niche diplomacy sebagai instrumen kebijakan luar negerinya. Riset ini dilakukan dengan metode kualitatif dan menemukan bahwa dalam kasus ini Qatar telah melakukan niche diplomacy dengan sejumlah strategi, yaitu conciliating builder, bridging builder dan  integrating builder.

Kata Kunci


Diplomasi Niche, Gencatan Senjata, Hamas, Qatar, Israel.
