Japan and France have agreed to initiate formal negotiations on a new security pact aimed at enhancing military cooperation and addressing rising maritime tensions in the region. Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and French President Emmanuel Macron confirmed the decision during Kishida's visit to Paris. The agreement includes discussions on a reciprocal troop access deal, which will facilitate joint military drills and bolster interoperability between the two nations, particularly in response to confronting Chinese hegemony in the Pacific.
