Seminar: Enhancing the Japan-U.S. Alliance: Security to Economic Relations

On Thursday, October 26, the Consulate General of Japan in San Francisco, in partnership with the World Affairs Council, will present a public event “Enhancing the Japan-U.S. Alliance: Security to Economic Relations”. Today, the East Asian security situation is under unprecedented threat by North Korea which has rejected all calls from the international community to desist in its nuclear and missiles development programs. How can our two countries best work together to ensure security and stability in the region?
The seminar will feature Mr. Shotaro Oshima, who served as a Japanese diplomat in various countries affecting East Asian security and trade negotiator in bilateral and multilateral negotiations. Oshima will explore these topics and share his thoughts on potential opportunities and challenges the Japan-U.S. relationship will face and the importance of continued US leadership in Asia.
