The frienship between Taiwan and Japan should be deepened, Masanobu Ogura, who is leading a Japanese delegation in Taipei, told President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文), Vice President William Lai (賴清德) and members of a Japanese Liberal Democratic Party Youth Division delegation via teleconference.
Ogura, who heads the division and is a lawmaker in the Japanese House of Representatives, said he regretted not meeting Tsai and Lai in person, due to one of the delegation’s members, Daisuke Nishino, being diagnosed with COVID-19, but thanked Tsai for meeting with acting delegation head Norikazu Suzuki and other members.
Ogura said Tsai’s strong leadership has been recognized
