JAKARTA (Reuters) -- Indonesia is prioritizing its national interests in its ongoing negotiations over U.S. tariffs, its senior economic minister and top negotiator said on Friday, as it wants a "fair and square" trade relationship with the United States.

Airlangga Hartarto, the head of the Indonesian delegation, and Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati have been in the United States since last week negotiating the proposed 32% tariffs the U.S. wants to impose on Indonesia. These tariffs have been put on hold for 90 days.
