Full List of NATO Navies Supplying World's Largest Muslim Nation
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Indonesia's defense ministry on Saturday signed an agreement with Turkish officials for the purchase of two frigates. While the deal adds to Jakarta's growing list of procurement contracts with NATO allies, analysts warn that relying on such a diverse mix of foreign manufacturers poses logistical challenges and could strain Indonesia's limited defense budget. Newsweek reached out to the Indonesian defense ministry and Turkish foreign ministry via email for comment. Why It Matters Despite fielding Southeast Asia's largest navy, Indonesia has only a handful of combatant ships—mainly comprising small attack craft suited for operation near the coast and a small fleet of aging submarines. While Indonesia has maintained a policy of neutrality even amid territorial disputes with China, Malaysia and Australia, officials have been working to transition the navy from a green-water force focused on nearshore defense to a blue-water navy able to project power farther from its shores. France French warship builder Naval Group has been contracted to construct two diesel-electric Scorpène-class submarines in Indonesia, which will bring the country's submarine count to six. Indonesian's navy operates two oceanographic research vessels built by France's OCEA Shipbuilding.

Wikimedia Commons United Kingdom Two frigates based on the UK's Arrowhead 140 design are being built for Indonesia by state-owned shipbuilder PT PAL under a deal with London-based defense contractor Babcock. British diving and submarine rescue equipment manufacturer Submarine Manufacturing and Products is contracted to provide the Indonesian Navy with its new submarine rescue system. Italy Earlier this month, Indonesia took delivery of the first of two multipurpose offshore patrol vessels it ordered from Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri. The Netherlands Indonesia operates six Dutch-designed, Sigma-class missile-guided corvettes: four Diponegoro-class and two larger, more advanced Martadinata-class ships. Turkey The agreement signed Saturday by Turkish and Indonesian officials will see Turkey's TAIS shipyards build a pair of Istif-class frigates for the Southeast Asian nation. What People Are Saying Collin Koh, senior fellow at the Institute of Defense and Strategic Studies, wrote on X, formerly Twitter: "Dutch corvettes, French + Republic of Korea [South Korea] submarines, British + Turkish frigates, Italian offshore patrol vessels. Mostly involving small quantities of purchase. "A logistical nightmare that doesn't maximize efficient use of limited funds for long-term sustainability of a fleet." SSB, a Turkish government agency tasked with managing defense industry projects, wrote: "This marks Turkey's first export of MİLGEM-class vessels to Indonesia and represents a significant milestone in strategic naval cooperation, bringing pride to our nation. "We hope this collaboration, embodying the shared maritime defense vision of two allied nations, will be beneficial for all parties involved."

Microsoft says H-1B visas, layoffs ‘in no way' related
This story was originally published on CFO Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily CFO Dive newsletter. Dive Brief: Microsoft — which has been drawn into the crossfire around the tech industry's use of the H-1B visa program that allows U.S. employers to employ foreign skilled workers in specialty occupations — rejected criticism which tied its recent layoffs to the company's reliance on foreign worker visas. 'Our H-1B applications are in no way related to the recent job eliminations in part because employees on H-1B's also lost their roles. In the past 12 months, 78% of the petitions we filed were extensions for existing employees and not new employees coming to the U.S.,' the company said in a statement emailed to CFO Dive by a spokesperson. Vice President JD Vance last week called out the tech company for laying off American workers while relying heavily on immigrant labor through the visa program, questioning the economic logic and ethics of the dual moves, Newsweek reported. 'I don't want companies to fire 9,000 American workers and then to go and say, 'We can't find workers here in America,'' Vance reportedly said at a bipartisan event Wednesday. Dive Insight: The scrutiny of Microsoft's use of the visa program comes at the end of a month in which the company announced that it will lay off about 9,000 employees across different teams in its global workforce. It's not the first time the H-1B program has drawn fire: in December it sparked a heated debate on social media among key backers of Trump, with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) then co-leads Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy voicing support for it while some conservatives, including former South Carolina governor and former presidential candidate Nikki Haley, rallied against hiring workers from outside the U.S. The H-1B visa program is a tool that tech industry finance and human resource leaders have used to draw top talent no matter where they are located. For example, before the start of the Trump administration's second term Intuit CFO Sandeep Aujla pushed back against a protectionist view of the skilled labor market in an interview with CFO Dive, defending the visas and warning against the country becoming isolationist, asserting the importance of allowing access to the global talent pool. But, in addition to raids by the U.S. Immigration Customs Enforcement of certain farms and other employers of undocumented workers, by April the new administration's crackdown on immigration appeared to be chilling companies' prospects for getting visas for white-collar jobs too, with immigration lawyers saying they were already starting to see sharper vetting of work authorizations, CFO Dive previously reported. Last week the newly-minted director of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, Joseph Edlow, signaled that more change is coming, saying the Trump administration is planning to target the process that grants H1-B visas to skilled foreign workers, The New York Times reported Friday. Edlow asserted that the system that is now a lottery should favor companies who pay foreign workers higher wages, according to the report.

Map Shows States Gaining Most Jobs Due to Reshoring Efforts
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The United States is experiencing a surge in reshoring, bringing manufacturing jobs back from overseas. This impacts economic growth, job creation, and the country's industrial future, but the effects could be more intensely felt in certain states, according to a new report from Visual Capitalist. An expert told Newsweek in part, "States like South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana are benefiting because rising costs overseas—driven by tariffs—are forcing suppliers to rethink their strategies." Why It Matters Millions of manufacturing jobs are set to return to American soil by the end of 2025, according to Visual Capitalist. This is part due to President Donald Trump's push for domestic manufacturing alongside his recently enacted tariffs on foreign countries' imports. As this occurs, global supply chain disruptions, shifting costs, and major corporate investments could reshape the employment landscape. These changes do not benefit every state equally, with significant regional disparities emerging, the report found, however. What To Know Texas has emerged as the top state benefiting from reshoring, adding more than 40,200 manufacturing jobs as of 2025. That's nearly 23 percent of all positions created through these initiatives nationwide. Major factors fueling this growth in Texas include $65 billion in investment from Samsung, $5.5 billion from Tesla, and $4.9 billion in public infrastructure projects. South Carolina ranks second, claiming 24,800 reshored jobs, with Mississippi (12,100), New Mexico (9,800), and Michigan (8,700) rounding out the top five. Together, these four states account for 32 percent of reshored jobs in the country. Further down the list are Alabama (8,600), Washington (7,900), Louisiana (7,800), and Ohio (6,400). Louisiana's growth is linked to investments by companies such as Hyundai Motor Group, Syrah Resources, Shell Catalysts & Technologies, Intralox, Prolec GE, Mid South Extrusion, Ascentek, Inc., and Climeworks, according to the Louisiana Economic Development. "States like South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana are benefiting because rising costs overseas—driven by tariffs—are forcing suppliers to rethink their strategies. It's simply becoming more cost-effective to bring jobs back home," Kevin Thompson, the CEO of 9i Capital Group and the host of the 9innings podcast, told Newsweek. The distribution of jobs is highly concentrated by industry. Computer and electronics manufacturing leads with roughly 68,700 new positions, which is about one-third of all reshoring gains. Transportation follows with 52,500 jobs, while electrical equipment adds 34,800 (17 percent). Chemicals and primary metals contribute 11,000 and 9,000 jobs, respectively, as reported by Visual Capitalist and GlobeSt. Major corporations driving reshoring include Walmart, which has announced plans for 300,000 new jobs, as well as Apple (20,000 jobs), CMA CGM (10,000), and GE Aerospace (5,000). Other contributors are Stellantis, GE Vernova (1,500 each), and Siemens (over 900). "Given the increased reliance on a virtual marketplace versus brick and mortar, many employers are able to save money on production they were unable to do in the past while also requiring better-trained new hires," Alex Beene, a financial literacy instructor for the University of Tennessee at Martin, told Newsweek. The full top 10 list of states most impacted by reshoring efforts is as follows: Texas (40,200 jobs) South Carolina (24,800 jobs) Mississippi (12,100 jobs) New Mexico (9,800 jobs) Michigan (8,700 jobs) Alabama (8,600 jobs) Washington (7,900 jobs) Louisiana (7,800 jobs) Ohio (6,400 jobs) North Carolina (5,200 jobs) U.S. Vice President JD Vance tours Metallus, a metal products manufacturer, on July 28, 2025, in Canton, Ohio.

Maddie McGarvey-Pool/Getty Images What People Are Saying Drew Powers, the founder of Illinois-based Powers Financial Group, told Newsweek: "We now live in a global economy, and that is never going to change. But in the US, we let the pendulum swing too far, and we became dependent on the global supply chain for 100% of our needs in certain sectors. Reshoring is a process that brings the balance closer to the most efficient and effective outcome over time, where we do not outsource everything, even if just to hedge against supply-chain disruptions." Kevin Thompson, the CEO of 9i Capital Group and the host of the 9innings podcast, told Newsweek: "The long-term implication is clear: many of the jobs being reshored will ultimately be automated. Government incentives and tariff policies are encouraging suppliers to bring work back, but companies are also looking at ways to reduce their biggest expense—the employee." Alex Beene, a financial literacy instructor for the University of Tennessee at Martin, told Newsweek: "Obviously, some will point to efforts from the new administration to have more tariffs on items imported from outside the United States, but the reality is most of the movement was in the works well before the White House changed hands. Factors vary per company, but it's a mixture of a need for more highly skilled labor for certain roles and economic incentives from some states, most heavily in the Southeastern United States, to attract employers." What Happens Next Reshoring is projected to add as many as 2.3 million jobs to the U.S. economy by the close of 2025, according to Visual Capitalist. As companies continue to announce new domestic investments, states that successfully attract these projects may see additional employment gains and economic growth. However, the gains could be short-term, experts say. "The (Trump) administration has already acknowledged that a significant portion of these jobs will be integrated with robotics," Thompson said. "While that strengthens the supply chain, we shouldn't expect a massive increase in jobs held by humans over the long run."
