This decolonisation is not yet a thing of the past. In 2005, the Dutch Minister of Foreign Affairs participated in the celebrations surrounding the sixtieth anniversary of Indonesian independence. In this way, the Netherlands recognised that Indonesia had gained independence not in 1949, but on 17 August 1945.fter 1945, the Netherlands tried to restore its colonial administration through negotiations and with force, in two police actions. However, on 27 December 1949, under a great deal of international pressure, it accepted Indonesian independence.
