PM: Japan-U.S. Alliance is a solid pillar in space and cyber fields to be strengthened on January 19 16:34

A commemorative event was held in Tokyo on the 19th, 60 years after the revision of the Japan-U.S. Security Treaty, and Prime Minister Abe emphasized that the Japan-U.S. Alliance was a solid pillar to protect world peace. He expressed his intention to enhance and strengthen the alliance in the space and cyber fields.

The current U.S.-Japan Security Treaty, which states that the United States has an obligation to defend Japan while allowing U.S. military bases in Japan, was issued on January 19, 1960, under the then Prime Minister Kishi and President Eisenhower. The signature of the revision was made.

The government will hold a commemorative event in Tokyo 60 years after the revision on the 19th, and Prime Minister Abe, the grandson of Prime Minister Kishimoto, said, `` Now, the Japan-US Security Treaty has protected world peace. A solid pillar that guarantees prosperity. "

He added, "From now on, we have a responsibility to strengthen our alliance as a pillar to protect the security and peace of space and cyberspace. We will defend and strengthen the Japan-US Alliance 100 years into the future."

In response, U.S. Army commander Schneider responded, "As the security environment in the region changes rapidly, the importance of the alliance is increasing every day."

"The feelings of Kishi and Eisenhower have been handed down 60 years now, and we hope to further develop bilateral relations," said Mary, grandson of former President Eisenhower.

Komei Yamaguchi, Representative: “Equal Relations in Revision”

At the meeting held in Matsuyama, the Komeito party said in a meeting held in Matsuyama City, "Before the revision, the only option was to extend the occupation and the U.S. military would only have a base. The United States has changed its obligation to defend to a treaty of equal relations, after which Japan has advanced to high economic growth and has become the foundation for economic prosperity. "
