WASHINGTON, 13 January 2023, (TON): The top national security officials from the US and Japan unveiled plans to strengthen the alliance to help counter threats from North Korea and China, which they called the greatest challenge in the region.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the agreement reflects the two nations’ effort to deepen cooperation “across all realms,” including space, cybersecurity and emerging technologies.
“It is hard to overstate the importance of the US-Japan alliance for more than seven decades,” said Blinken, following the meeting at the State Department.
“It’s been the cornerstone of peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific, ensuring the security, the liberty and prosperity of our people and people across the region.”
