Saudi Ambassador meets FM and praises close ties with Japan

  • He said the relations between the two countries have been characterized by sincerity, honesty, and commitment

TOKYO: After meeting Japanese Foreign Minister MOTEGI Toshimitsu on the sidelines of the 19th Annual Japan International Manga Awards, Saudi Arabia’s Ambassador to Japan Dr. Ghazi Faisal Binzagr says the Kingdom’s 70-year relationship with Japan is testament “to what trust between civilizations and countries can build.”

“In an increasingly turbulent world, relationships built on trust, respect and long-term vision remain part of a deeper path toward human stability,” he stated.

He said the relations between the two countries have been characterized by sincerity, honesty, and commitment, and reinforced through decades of communication between the leaders of the two countries. 

He recalled the visit of King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud in 2017, which, he said, ushered in a new era of cooperation through Vision Saudi-Japan 2030.

Ambassador Binzagr described Saudi Arabia’s ties with Japan as “one of the more important relationships in international relations, backed by honesty, trust, and unwavering commitment. I hope that the relationship between the two countries will continue to grow deeper on this foundation of trust.”
