Ganjar Pranowo Advocates Redefining Foreign Policy to Align with National Aspirations
Jakarta, The Gulf Observer: Indonesian Presidential candidate Ganjar Pranowo emphasized the imperative of redefining Indonesia’s active and free foreign policy to align with national aspirations and fortify the state.
Presenting his vision, mission, and work programs during the third presidential debate, Ganjar stressed the necessity of choosing, categorizing, and prioritizing the nation’s strengths and interests.
