Sudan's Defense Minister: Whoever Is Indonesia's Enemy Is Sudan's Enemy

Sudan's Defense Minister: Whoever Is Indonesia's Enemy Is Sudan's Enemy

Sudanese Defense Minister Lieutenant General Hassan Daoud Kayan stressed that Sudan is a long-time friend of Indonesia, and Indonesia’s enemies are Sudan’s enemies. The statement was made during a press conference at Indonesia’s Ministry of Defense in Central Jakarta, Wednesday (9/9/2026). Hassan mentioned that his visit to Indonesia was grounded in shared religion and culture. He said discussions with the Indonesian defense minister were productive and he hoped defense cooperation would be strengthened, including offering scholarships for Indonesian students in Sudan. Brigadier General Rico Ricardo Sirait, head of public relations at the ministry's general secretariat, explained that diplomatic ties between the two countries have been in place since 1960. During the meeting, small arms products from PT Pindad were showcased as a way to explore potential sales of primary weapon systems to Sudan. https://www.gelora.co/2026/09/menhan-sudan-yang-memusuhi-indonesia.html

Funny, isn’t it? While a lot of countries are out there stirring up talk of war, there are also some who come bringing messages of brotherhood like this. I hope the scholarship cooperation actually goes through-would be pretty good for the younger ones wanting to study in Africa.

Wow, if Pindad's products sell well in Africa, they’re probably gonna end up competing head-to-head with Chinese manufacturers. But I hope it’s not just about selling stuff, you know-hopefully there’s also useful tech transfer that benefits both sides.

I just found out Sudan is this close to us. Back in school, all I knew was about pyramids, but turns out our ties go all the way back to 1960. It’s super cool that Pindad can even send weapons over there.
