Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto has named career diplomat Arrmanatha Nasir as the country's new foreign minister, in a reshuffle of his cabinet.
Nasir succeeds Sugiono, who has been moved to the role of human development minister under the reshuffled lineup. The change places a career diplomat with experience in Indonesia's foreign service at the helm of the foreign ministry.
A career diplomat's appointment
Nasir's background as a career diplomat is likely to be viewed as a signal of continuity in Indonesia's foreign policy approach, given his experience navigating the country's diplomatic institutions prior to this appointment.
The reshuffle comes as part of broader adjustments within Prabowo's government, with Sugiono's move to the human development portfolio suggesting a shift in focus for the outgoing foreign minister toward domestic social policy areas.
Further details on the full scope of the cabinet changes, and any accompanying shifts in policy priorities under the new foreign minister, were not immediately specified beyond the announcement of Nasir's appointment and Sugiono's reassignment.
