Hence a deepening of Indo-Japanese relationship is mutually beneficial for both countries in Asia in particular, and at the global level in general. Since both countries are important stakeholders of the Asian balance of power, therefore their increasing bonhomie will ensure multi-polarity within a new emerging Asian security architecture.
