West papua

the occupation of west Papua should be added to the list west Papua was seized by Indonesia in 1962 Christsos (talk) 06:04, 3 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

West Papua would be inside of Indonesia's recognized territory. This doesn't make it morally correct, but it would not qualify as a military occupation. IrisArgo (talk) 01:00, 24 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Guantanamo Bay

Hello. I believe that the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base belonging to the United States would qualify as an occupation. It is controlled by the United States military, despite being in Cuba. It has also been described as an occupation by multiple sources. [1][2][3][4] Thoughts? IrisArgo (talk) 01:18, 24 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
