The three-way cooperation is set ‘to get deeper and more institutionalised’.
CAMP DAVID: US president Joe Biden will today announce new security cooperation with Japan and South Korea including joint exercises at a first-of-a-kind three-way summit with their leaders that has already rattled China.
Biden, Yoon and Japanese prime minister Fumio Kishida will agree to a multiyear plan of regular exercises in all domains, going beyond one-off drills in response to North Korea, and will announce a “commitment to consult” during crises, said Jake Sullivan, Biden’s national security adviser. Camp David marks the first time the three countries’ leaders have met for a standalone summit, not on the sidelines of larger event, and is the first diplomatic event since 2015 at the resort, which is synonymous with Middle East peacemaking.
China, the former congressman turned ambassador said, should understand: “We are the rising power; they are declining.” As of late yesterday, negotiators from the three countries were still debating whether to refer overtly to China in the final statement, Japanese foreign ministry spokesman Hikariko Ono said.
