"It marks an exciting next phase in the UK and Japan's flourishing partnership." "The Hiroshima Accord will see us step up cooperation between our armed forces, grow our economies together and develop our world-leading science and technology expertise. "Prime Minister Kishida and I are closely aligned on the importance of protecting peace and security in the Indo-Pacific and defending our values, including free and fair trade. Mr Sunak said: "It is a privilege to be visiting Tokyo and Hiroshima at this historic moment in the United Kingdom's relationship with Japan.

This will see the UK "step up defence co-operation with Japan to uphold stability in the Indo-Pacific" region, a statement from Downing Street said. ![]() The prime minister is set to agree a "historic" economic, security and tech agreement with Japan ahead of a Group of Seven summit to be held in Hiroshima this week.
