Estonian Foreign Affairs Minister Margus Tsahkna recently said that Indonesia could count on the European Union amid the heightened tariff wars triggered by US’ tariff aggression. Estonia has sent its top diplomat to Indonesia to build stronger ties with Southeast Asia’s largest economy.  Amid the tariff storm, Indonesia intends to diversify its markets, including to the EU. During an interview with B-Universe Media Holdings, Tsahkna commented on this plan, saying that the European bloc was ready to engage in greater trade ties.  He added: “The EU is the world’s largest single market, and to be honest, the wealthiest as well.” The Estonian envoy also said that the ongoing tariff war could have a major influence on people’s everyday life, thus highlighting the need to discuss its impact with trading partners. Official figures showed Indonesia-Estonia’s trade jumped from $446.1 million in 2023 to $540 million the following year. Indonesia’s export volume to Estonia was almost 32-times bigger than what it imported in 2024, giving Jakarta a $508 million surplus that year. Source : https://jakartaglobe.id/business/eu-a-reliable-partner-for-indonesia-amid-tariff-war-estonia-says (ICE GIACARTA)
