Indo-Japanese ties

Tying in with Tokyo

Prominent Japanese have been making it clear that what their country seeks in its relationship with India is a move toward a strategic partnership. They believe that the relations between China, Japan and India would be the driving force of future geopolitics and security in the Asian continent. We need to recognise that Tokyo has maintained close relations with Pakistan over the years. But concerns about Pakistan’s continuing domestic instability and proliferation policies, which now pose direct challenges to Japan’s security, are issues that should encourage Japan to consider building a strategic partnership with this country.
