Secretary of State Marco Rubio met today with Japanese Foreign Minister Iwaya Takeshi in Washington. They discussed plans to deepen ties during the Trump Administration, and how the United States and Japan can work together to counter ongoing threats in the Indo-Pacific and around the world, including joint efforts against China's destabilizing actions. The two also discussed concerns over both the DPRK's political and security alignment with Russia, as well as China's support for Russia's defense industrial base. Secretary Rubio underscored enduring U.S. commitment to the U.S.-Japan Alliance as the cornerstone of security and prosperity in the region.
