Japan will soon send a mission to India to identify new areas of economic cooperation between the two countries.
This assurance was given by Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi to his Indian counterpart Atal Bihari Vajpayee in Tokyo on Monday.
Vajpayee, in a statement before leaving for New Delhi, said the Japanese premier assured him of the importance his country attaches to strengthening economic ties with India and
added that two countries agreed to identify new areas for expansion of this cooperation.
The prime minister recalled that before leaving for Japan he had mentioned that "the two main pillars of future India-Japan relations would be our economic cooperation and
our strategic convergences".
He said the joint declaration signed on Monday night between New Delhi and Tokyo "confirmed that this is a shared perception of India and Japan."
