Japan, U.S. Foreign Chiefs Meet in Tokyo
Tokyo, Jan. 7 (Jiji Press)--Japanese Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwaya said Tuesday that the country aims to take its alliance with the United States to a higher level.
The Japan-U.S. alliance has become stronger than ever over the past four years during the administration of U.S. President Joe Biden, Iwaya told U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in a meeting in Tokyo.
Blinken said that the bilateral relationship will continue to grow stronger even after U.S. President-elect Donald Trump takes office later this month.
