Indonesia scraps plan to send delegation to US for tariff talks; Prabowo and Trump hold phone meeting


JAKARTA (Bloomberg): Indonesia will no longer send a delegation to the US for tariff negotiations as its proposal to Washington has already been deemed sufficient, according to the senior minister who’s leading the talks.

It’s a change from the delegation’s previous plans to head to Washington this week for a second round of negotiations, as the South-East Asian nation works to bring down a planned 32% tariff on its exports to the US.
