Nikkei Asia: NATO to open Japan office, deepening Indo-Pacific engagement  


Two sides to upgrade cooperation on cyber, disruptive tech and disinformation 


TOKYO/BRUSSELS -- NATO is planning to open a liaison office in Tokyo, Japan, the first of its kind in Asia, Nikkei Asia has learned. 


The station will allow the military alliance to conduct periodic consultations with Japan and key partners in the region, such as South Korea, Australia and New Zealand as China emerges as a new challenge, alongside its traditional focus on Russia. 


NATO and Japan will also upgrade their cooperation, aiming to sign an Individually Tailored Partnership Programme (ITPP) before the NATO Summit in Vilnius, Lithuania on July 11-12. The two sides will deepen collaboration in tackling cyber threats, coordinate stances on emerging and disruptive technologies, and exchange notes on fighting disinformation. 


The plans were confirmed by both Japanese and NATO officials.
