Japan and South Korea are looking forward to expanding their bilateral ties by launching a defense exchange project in January. The initiative aims to promote peace and stability in the region following a period of tense relations. The details of the project, including involved parties and the nature of the joint defense operations, are yet to be disclosed.

Japan has been actively working on bolstering its defense and security relations with other nations in recent years. Such strategies are driven by the increasing geopolitical challenges in East Asia. People in Japan generally express support for such collaboration as a means to enhance country's defense capabilities and maintain peace.

In the U.S and EU, defense partnerships are also seen as an important part of foreign policy and national security strategy. They involve frequent information sharing, joint military exercises, defense dialogues, and technical collaboration.
