"We have reiterated several times that BRICS is an important platform for Indonesia to strengthen South-South cooperation and ensure that the voices and aspirations of Global South countries are well-represented in global decision-making processes," Indonesian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Rolliansyah Soemirat told DW. This statement highlights Indonesia's commitment to using BRICS as a way to amplify the voices of developing nations in international forums.
"Jakarta was committed to contributing to the agendas discussed by BRICS, including efforts to promote economic resilience, technological cooperation, and public health," according to the spokesman. This reflects Indonesia's readiness to play a significant role within BRICS and contribute to its goals.
The shift in Jakarta signals more than a simple change of government. With the Western-led global order seen as politically frayed, countries of the Global South are increasingly willing to move closer to Beijing and Moscow and risk angering Washington. This indicates a broader geopolitical shift as nations reconsider their alliances.
