India and Japan Enhance Cooperation on Indo-Pacific Strategy
India and Japan will intensify economic security and defense collaborations, particularly in supply chains for critical materials. This partnership aligns with their commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific region.

During a meeting in New Delhi, Japanese Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi and Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar agreed to enhance bilateral cooperation in economic security and defense. The ministers emphasized strengthening supply chains for critical materials and boosting economic growth through public-private investments, reflecting a joint vision established during PM Modi's visit to Japan.
They confirmed collaboration on energy security and strategic regional issues, including navigation safety in the Strait of Hormuz. This partnership may influence regional dynamics amid increasing geopolitical tensions in the Indo-Pacific.
