Japan and India agreed Friday to significantly ramp up cooperation in a number of areas, including trade, security and people exchanges, as the special strategic partners draw closer amid growing international concern over unilateral U.S. trade tariffs.
In a press announcement following a meeting with his Indian counterpart at the Prime Minister’s Office on Friday evening, Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba presented a joint statement outlining a 10-year roadmap for bilateral cooperation.
Eight areas of collaboration were identified as priorities: economy, economic security, mobility, environment, technology and innovation, health, people to people ties and engagements between local governments.
