Nevertheless, through many opportunities of meeting friends from Pakistan in my career, I have been keenly interested in and had a great respect for Pakistan. I am determined to further enhance Japan-Pakistan relationship, which is already very close and has a long history.<\/p>\n<p>Japan and Pakistan have strengthened ties of friendship since we established diplomatic relatio<span class=\"text_exposed_show\">ns in 1952. To this day, we have deepened our relationship in political, economic, cultural, educational, and other areas. As our relations have still plenty of room to expand, both countries are willing to develop our full potential in many areas. In this regard, I am committed to exploring every possible avenue.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"text_exposed_show\">\n<p>With Pakistan\u2019s more than 200 million people, we are expecting great development in our business relations.
