Japan and Brazil Sign Five-Year Strategic Partnership Action Plan

Japan and Brazil signed a five-year strategic partnership plan. The two countries will strengthen cooperation in trade and climate change to respond to shifts in the global trade environment.

Japan and Brazil signed a five-year strategic partnership action plan. The two countries will strengthen cooperation across multiple fields including trade, defense, and climate change.

In February this year, Japan's import value of goods from Brazil increased by 31.6%. Japan's import value from Brazil is approaching 500 million US dollars.

The backdrop of this cooperation is the impact of US tariff policy on global trade. The leaders of both countries stated they will continue to strengthen bilateral economic and trade relations.
