London – On June 16, protesters disrupted Indonesian President Megawati Sukarnoputri's meeting with British Labour Prime Minister Tony Blair. Waving placards, posters and a grave stone for the murdered Papuan leader Theys Eluay, protesters blocked the entrance to Downing Street to draw attention to the Indonesian military's human rights abuses in West Papua. Police dragged protesters out of the way, while others shouted "Get out of Papua" and "Papua Merdeka".
