The President of the Republic of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto, received a working visit from the Prime Minister of Australia, Anthony Albanese, at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta, on Friday (6/2/2026). This visit resulted in the signing of the Joint Security Treaty as an effort to maintain peace in the Indo-Pacific region. "This joint security agreement reflects the determination of both countries to continue to work closely together in maintaining their respective national security, as well as to make a real contribution to the peace and stability of the Indo-Pacific region. For Indonesia, this reflects a firm commitment to the principle of good neighborliness and our independent and active foreign policy," stated President Prabowo. Meanwhile, PM Albanese added that the signing of this agreement is a continuation of a long process that began with a bilateral meeting in Sydney, in November last year. The newly agreed Joint Security Treaty emphasizes strengthening bilateral consultation mechanisms that include a regular consultation forum for heads of state to discuss regional and global security situations, following up on the Defense Cooperation Agreement that Indonesia and Australia have agreed to since 2006.[1]
In addition, the two countries also opened up opportunities to strengthen cooperation, including military education exchanges, the development of joint training facilities, and the placement of senior Indonesian officers in the Australian Defense Force. Indonesian Foreign Minister Sugiono underscored the urgency of strengthening collaboration and intensive communication with countries in the region to mitigate various challenges, in line with the principles of good neighborly diplomacy. "So in a situation like this, communication and collaboration are essential. Therefore, a common understanding of the global situation is needed," said Foreign Minister Sugiono. Furthermore, Foreign Minister Sugiono emphasized that this treaty is not a binding military defense pact, but rather a constructive consultation forum. Foreign Minister Sugiono added that this type of consultation mechanism is a common practice in Indonesian diplomacy, as is the consultation forum Indonesia has with other partner countries.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
