BALI (Sputnik) — On Tuesday, Trump won the 2016 election with at least 290 electoral votes, while his rival Hillary Clinton received 232 votes despite winning the popular vote by a margin of some 200,000. The presidential inauguration will be held on January 20, 2017.

"I don't think Indonesia is the only country waiting. The global community is also waiting to see how the new US government formulates its policies in relation to other countries… So, we will wait and see," Marsudi said, as quoted by The Jakarta Globe newspaper on Saturday.

She said that Jakarta had prepared various strategies to be implemented in response to several possible scenarios of new US foreign policy under Trump's presidency.

The minister said the future changes of the US government course would be closely monitored by the international community, especially by the countries that had established partnership with the United States.
