Sugiono (born 11 February 1979) is an Indonesian politician and diplomat who has been serving as the Minister for Foreign Affairs in President Prabowo Subianto's Red and White Cabinet since 2024. A member of the Gerindra Party, he is also the party's secretary-general since 2025. Prior to his appointment as foreign minister, Sugiono served as a member of the House of Representatives from 2019 to 2024, holding the role of deputy chairperson of the House's First Commission which oversees the fields of defense, foreign affairs, and communications.
Sugiono is dubbed as Prabowo's "ideological child". Upon his appointment as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Sugiono has become the first non-diplomat and the first person with no academic background in international relations or diplomacy to hold that position in nearly 25 years. He is also the first foreign minister to be affiliated with a political party since Alwi Shihab. All of his three predecessors, Hassan Wirajuda, Marty Natalegawa, and Retno Marsudi were career diplomats and independent politicians before becoming the top diplomat in Indonesia.
