        "summary": "Indonesia's Foreign Ministry has emphasised that securing energy for its citizens is a national priority amid dynamic geopolitics, through collaborations with partners including the United States and Russia. In response to the EU's suggestion for ASEAN countries to seek alternative oil sources beyond Russia, Indonesia remains open to stronger ties with the EU while committing to import 150 million barrels of Russian oil gradually until the end of 2026, alongside ongoing imports from the US. This approach addresses Indonesia's daily oil needs of 1.6 million barrels against domestic production of 600,000 barrels, aiming for long-term affordability, reliability, availability, and stability.",
