U.S. President Joe Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida agreed to upgrade the 7-decade old alliance to ‘global partners for the future’1) in the summit meeting in the Washington D.C. early this month amid the challenges against the rule-based liberal international order which the U.S. has championed in envisaging and maintaining after the end of the World War II. The agreement covers a wide range of issues from the strengthening of defense and security cooperation through the deepening of cooperative areas in space, technological innovation and economic security to global diplomacy and development. The former foes are completely on the same ship on high seas in the Indo-Pacific region amid the attempts of altering the status quo unilaterally by force or coercion on both sides of Eurasia.
