The leaders of Japan and South Korea, Sanae Takaichi and Lee Jae Myung, met in Nara, Japan, to discuss bilateral cooperation in a tense international context. Relations between China and Japan are affected by Takaichi's statements regarding military intervention in the event of a Chinese attack on Taiwan and by the controls imposed by Beijing on exports to Japan. Lee emphasized the importance of cooperation between the two countries for regional stability, while Takaichi stated that they must collaborate to ensure security.

During the meeting, they agreed to strengthen cooperation in the fields of economic security and artificial intelligence. Lee recently visited China, and the meeting with Takaichi is seen as a sign that Seoul does not favor either side. The discussions will also address the current crisis between Japan and China, considering the impact of Beijing's retaliatory measures on South Korea. Relations between Japan and South Korea have been affected by historical past, but the current leaders are seeking to improve ties, especially in the face of regional challenges.
