印尼就所谓美国监视问题召见澳大利亚大使

Indonesia has summoned the Australian ambassador in Jakarta following reports indicating that Australia has allowed covert U.S. surveillance programs to operate in its embassies in Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, China and East Timor.

The news reports, based on documents leaked by former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor Edward Snowden,  also said that the U.S. Embassy in Jakarta was used for spying on its president, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and other Indonesian leaders.  They indicate the U.S. embassy houses wiretapping equipment that has been used to monitor other Indonesian leaders.  The documents describe the facilities as carefully concealed within embassy compounds.

After the meeting Friday, Australian diplomat Greg Moriarty said only that he talks had been good and he now had to report back to his government.

The Indonesian Foreign Ministry has also summoned America's top diplomat in Jakarta to clarify the allegations.
