President Prabowo Subianto Strengthens Indonesia-Turkiye Ties in Historic Ankara Visit

5 Min Read 598.8k Views

ANKARA, TÜRKİYE (April 9, 2025) – Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto arrived at Ankara’s Esenboğa International Airport on Wednesday, marking the start of a high-stakes diplomatic visit aimed at deepening strategic and economic cooperation between Indonesia and Türkiye. The Indonesian leader was personally welcomed by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in a ceremony underscoring the nations’ growing bilateral rapport. The visit, Prabowo’s first to Türkiye since assuming office in October 2024, highlights Jakarta’s commitment to strengthening ties with a key partner in the Muslim world and a bridge to Europe and the Middle East.

Warm Welcome and Symbolic Gestures
President Erdoğan greeted Prabowo with full military honors, including a 21-gun salute and the playing of both national anthems. The two leaders exchanged warm remarks, with Erdoğan praising Indonesia as a “critical voice for the Global South” and a “brotherly nation” united by shared democratic values and Islamic heritage. Prabowo, in turn, thanked Türkiye for its “unwavering solidarity” on issues such as Palestinian statehood and global economic equity. Observers noted the symbolic significance of Erdoğan’s decision to personally receive Prabowo—a gesture typically reserved for close allies—as a nod to Indonesia’s rising geopolitical influence.

Focus on Trade, Defense, and Regional Stability
During closed-door talks at the Presidential Complex, the leaders discussed expanding trade, which reached $5.2 billion in 2024, with a renewed focus on halal industries, renewable energy, and defense technology. Türkiye, a major supplier of military drones, is reportedly negotiating joint ventures with Indonesia’s state-owned defense firm PT Len. Prabowo emphasized Indonesia’s interest in Türkiye’s KAAN fifth-generation fighter jet program, while Erdoğan expressed support for Indonesia’s bid to join the OECD.

Regional security also dominated discussions. Both leaders condemned Israel’s actions in Gaza and called for an immediate ceasefire, aligning their positions ahead of the upcoming UN General Assembly. Prabowo reiterated Indonesia’s support for a two-state solution, while Erdoğan commended Jakarta’s humanitarian aid efforts in Palestine.

Cultural Connections and Diaspora Ties
The visit celebrated longstanding cultural ties, including Türkiye’s recognition of Indonesia’s Aceh province as a center of Islamic scholarship. A memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed to expand student exchanges and collaborate on film co-productions highlighting shared history. Erdoğan also acknowledged Indonesia’s thriving Turkish diaspora, which includes over 5,000 entrepreneurs contributing to sectors like textiles and tourism.

Economic Ambitions and Infrastructure Collaboration
With Indonesia targeting 7% GDP growth in 2025, Prabowo seeks Turkish investment in infrastructure projects like the new capital, Nusantara. Türkiye’s expertise in seismic-resistant construction aligns with Indonesia’s need for disaster-resilient infrastructure. An MoU on geothermal energy development was also inked, aiming to leverage Türkiye’s geothermal technology and Indonesia’s vast volcanic resources.

A Strategic Partnership for the Future
At a joint press conference, Prabowo described Türkiye as “a vital partner in Indonesia’s vision to become a global maritime and economic axis,” referencing his administration’s Golden Indonesia 2045 agenda. Erdoğan echoed this sentiment, stating, “Our cooperation transcends bilateral interests—it is about shaping a fairer multipolar world.”

The visit concluded with a state dinner featuring Indonesian rendang and Turkish baklava, symbolizing the fusion of traditions. Prabowo departed for Jakarta on Thursday, with plans for Erdoğan to attend the ASEAN Summit in Bali later this year.

Analysts’ Take
Experts view the summit as a strategic move to counterbalance Western influence in Asia-Pacific and Middle Eastern affairs. Dr. Siti Nurhayati, a Southeast Asia analyst at Ankara University, noted, “Both leaders are leveraging their non-aligned status to advocate for developing nations while securing economic opportunities.”

As geopolitical tensions rise, Indonesia and Türkiye’s strengthened alliance signals a shift toward middle-power diplomacy, with implications for global trade and security frameworks.
