Former Vice President Biden elected surely Aiming to build a relationship of trust Government November 8 2:00

In response to reports from the US media that the Democratic Party's former Vice President Joe Biden was elected in the US presidential election, the government aims to build a relationship of trust between leaders, including Prime Minister Suga's visit to the United States, and a new model. We would like to confirm cooperation on international issues such as coronavirus and global warming countermeasures.

Although the Japanese government caught up with President Trump in the final stage of the election campaign about the fact that the US media reported that the Democratic Party's former Vice President Joe Biden was elected in the US presidential election, Mr. Biden consistently in polls etc. Many people take it calmly because it was reported that they have the upper hand.



First of all, the government says that it is extremely important to build a relationship of trust between Prime Minister Suga and Mr. Biden, and I would like to realize the summit meeting at an appropriate time while watching the transition to the new administration.



Then, with Mr. Biden, who attaches great importance to international cooperation, in the areas of security such as North Korea's nuclear and missile issues, including international issues such as dealing with the new coronavirus and measures against global warming, Japan I would like to confirm the close cooperation between the United States.



On the other hand, there are many opinions within the government that the attitude toward China will not change significantly even if the Biden administration continues as the confrontation between the United States and China continues, and while observing the appearance of the new administration, it will be with China. Our policy is to consider how to improve the relationship.
