Foreign Minister Motegi confirms close cooperation to alleviate tension in the Middle East Meeting with French Foreign Minister September 25, 14:11
As Saudi Arabia's attacks on oil-related facilities tightened the situation over Iran, Foreign Minister Mogi met with French Foreign Minister Rudrian in New York, where he visited, and worked closely to alleviate tensions in the Middle East. I confirmed that I would go.
At the meeting, Foreign Minister Rudrian said, “I want to further develop the relationship between our two countries in the fields of security and economy.”
In response, Foreign Minister Mogi responded that France wants to further strengthen the cooperative relationship between the two countries, which are Indo-Pacific nations, as France occupies the South Pacific islands.
The two foreign ministers exchanged opinions based on the fact that Prime Minister Abe and President Macron met with Iran's President Rouhani, and confirmed that they would work closely together to alleviate tensions in the Middle East region.
