STRATEGIC ASSESSMENT. Foreign Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Teuku Faizasyah responded to the United States’ plan to deploy six nuclear-capable B-52 bombers to an air base in northern Australia. The ministry, he said, would continue to monitor events in the Indo-Pacific that may pose issues.
On the other hand, he highlighted that regional stability should be a top concern for all parties, and said he hoped that all parties would refrain from taking acts that would foster mutual distrust. He said that the United States is one of the countries that really wishes for stability and certainty in the region.
