By

Indonesia is looking to officially launch its Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) with the European Union (EU) at the start of 2027 following ratification by the end of 2026, The Jakarta Globe reported June 7.

The update came after Indonesia's Coordinating Economic Affairs Minister Airlangga Hartarto and European Union Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic met in Brussels the prior week, according to the report.

The agreement aims to broaden Indonesia's access to the European market and eliminate tariffs on the majority of exports.

The EU's Global Gateway initiative was also the subject of the talks in Brussels, under which strategic projects in critical minerals and related industries, as well as others, will receive support, The Jakarta Globe said.
