Abstract

The foreign policy of a nation is typically a reflection of its domestic situations and developments. Although worldwide events can affect the implementation of foreign policy, they can influence the government's determination of the priorities to be maintained and the objectives to be attained. Terrorism is not a new concern, but its significance in Indonesia's foreign policy is growing. Indonesia's participation in the battle against terrorism is not only to meet its commitments as a member of the international community to combat terrorism collectively, but also to further its national interests. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine Indonesia's foreign policy towards terrorist attacks. This study employs a qualitative, descriptive methodology. The results of the study indicate that Indonesia's foreign policy for this subject prioritizes bilateral, regional, and multilateral cooperation with other nations. This is evidenced by the increased bilateral collaboration between Indonesia, the United States, and Australia on international terrorist concerns, the ASEAN police cooperation through the ASEAN Chiefs of National Police conference, and Indonesia's participation in the Counter Terrorism Committee.
