Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida said Friday that Japan will continue to cooperate with South Korea after the Constitutional Court there upheld the National Assembly's decision to impeach President Park Geun-hye.
Japan will need to continue to cooperate with the new South Korean government in a variety of areas, as South Korea is an important neighbor with shared strategic interests with Japan, Kishida told a press briefing Friday.
"In light of the North Korean (DPRK) issue, the cooperation and coordination between Japan and South Korea is crucial to regional peace and stability," Kishida added, shortly after the South Korean court reached its decision to oust Park from office, over a scandal regarding corruption and abuse of power.
Kishida went on to express his hope that the new government of South Korea will carry out bilateral agreements reached between Tokyo and Seoul.
