Abstract

This dissertation research aims to analyze and address Indonesia's foreign policy towards Egypt, spanning from the presidency of Soekarno to that of Joko Widodo. During Soekarno's tenure, Indonesia's foreign policy towards Egypt was characterized by strong and ideal relations. However, this changed significantly under Soeharto, whose approach to Egypt was relatively more concerning. Efforts to strengthen Indonesia's foreign policy towards Egypt were made through state visits, as initiated by Soekarno. These state visits became a continuing tradition under subsequent presidents, including Abdurrahman Wahid, Megawati, and Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. The transition from SBY to Joko Widodo marked a shift in this tradition. Joko Widodo's absence from state visits to Egypt on several occasions has raised significant questions and represents an unprecedented deviation in Indonesia's foreign policy. This research seeks to understand why Joko Widodo's foreign policy towards Egypt differs from his predecessors and explores the considerations behind his decision not to visit Egypt. This study employs a qualitative research approach, using case study methods. Primary data were gathered through interviews, while secondary data were collected via documentation and literature review. The theoretical framework incorporates foreign policy analysis and psychological concepts related to foreign policy decision-making. The findings reveal that Indonesia's foreign policy towards Egypt under Joko Widodo has diverged from the established traditions of previous presidents. This shift is evidenced by the absence of presidential visits to Egypt and a reorientation of Indonesia's foreign policy priorities. These now emphasize economic cooperation and investment, particularly with China, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia. Several factors influenced Joko Widodo's decision, including Egypt's domestic situation following the Arab Spring, which remains unstable, as well as Joko Widodo's personal background and cognitive (psychological) considerations regarding the information available to him.
