Mr Pohiva spoke at the United Nations last month when several Pacific concern about human rights abuses by Indonesian forces in Papua.
Lord Nuku said Indonesia had already responded that it didn't like Tonga's interference.
He said the Cabinet was convinced that what the PM did was right, but he was convinced that it clashed with the Constitution.
