India and Japan share a long standing Special Strategic and Global Partnership built on decades of cultural ties, mutual trust and shared democratic values. The partnership also aligns India’s Act East Policy, SAGAR vision and Indo Pacific Oceans Initiative with Japan’s Free and Open Indo Pacific strategy.
