Rishi Sunak’s only been in office for a matter of weeks.
This is his second overseas trip in the job — he dashed to the COP27 climate summit last week.
This summit will provide the first chance for a British PM to condemn Russia’s war in Ukraine to a senior Russian minister face to face.
Sunak will do that when all the countries’ representatives get together for a discussion involving all of them.
Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov is representing Vladimir Putin.
The prime minister confronts what he calls “the biggest economic crisis in a decade.”
It is a crisis, shared; big chunks of the world economy are already shrivelling or expected to soon.
But Rishi Sunak also has to patch up what he calls the “mistakes” of his predecessor Liz Truss, and take on critics in his own party who fear cranking up taxes while simultaneously cutting spending risks making a bad situation worse.
On the first leg of this long flight to Bali, he told us the UK has stabilised “because people expect the government to take the decisions that will put our public finances on a sustainable trajectory… and that’s what the chancellor will do.”
