The Separatism OPM (Independent Papua Organization) group, which on April 29, 2021, has been designated as a KKB (Armed Criminal Group) Determination of Terrorist status for KKB because their activities have threatened the safety of many lives parties, from civilians, TNI, POLRI, to Health Workers. His movements were already treasonous and massive. KKB (Armed Criminal Group) is an Indonesian citizen who has not been able to fully accept as an Indonesian citizen, and is still trying to separate itself from the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia, in its efforts to break away from the territory of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia continues to aggressively make various efforts not only with armed violence, but also diplomacy seeking support National and International politics also through Social Media. This qualitative research is to determine the existence of KKB (Armed Criminal Group) and how the Handling Strategy is, in order to achieve national stability. Through this Qualitative Research, after digging up data from various sources, it was analyzed and concluded that the KKB is an organization that violates the sovereignty of the Republic of Indonesia. The government has a legal basis to muzzle it. The handling strategy must also be comprehensively firm, measurable, efficient and effective in order to maintain the sovereignty of the Republic of Indonesia (Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia). The alternative to handling the KKB (Armed Criminal Group) is to be handed over to the Papuans themselves, because they are the ones who know their own affairs best, but still within the framework of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia.
