Foreign ministers pledge to work closely towards a ‘just and lasting peace’ in Ukraine, cooperate on Indo-Pacific and Middle East issues
Japanese Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwaya and his German counterpart Johann Wadephul agreed on Monday to strengthen bilateral cooperation, amid the wars in Ukraine and Gaza and shifting relations with the United States.
During the first “strategic dialogue” between the two nations, Iwaya and Wadephul agreed at a meeting in Tokyo to work closely towards a “just and lasting peace” in Ukraine, the Japanese foreign ministry said.
The ministers also pledged to cooperate on Indo-Pacific issues, including North Korea’s nuclear and missile programmes, and on the Middle East, where a humanitarian crisis continues in Gaza amid Israeli attacks, the ministry said.
