Bali bombings: 20 years later and its diplomatic issues

It’s been 20 years since the Bali bombings happened in Indonesia, killing more than 200 people, and more were injured.

Many attended a memorial service to commemorate the event in Bali and to remember those affected.

But the event also shook the diplomatic relations between Australia and Indonesia.

While at the beginning both countries spoke greatly of each other, now 20 years after the Bali bombings, both countries are getting more distant.
