Indonesia’s top defense official said the country is no closer to the purchase of Chinese J-10 fighter jets after previously signaling otherwise.
“Not finished — we are window shopping,” Defense Minister Sjafrie Sjamsoeddin told Bloomberg News on the sidelines of a regional security conference in Kuala Lumpur when asked Friday about a possible deal.
