Australia and Japan have agreed to strengthen their partnership to support economic security by making us more resilient to economic shocks and uncertainty and supporting regional economic resilience.

Leaders also committed to strengthening energy security, helping ensure stable supplies of fuel and gas for households and businesses in both countries, and supporting open trade flows of essential energy goods.

Both countries will also deepen cooperation in critical minerals, defence and cyber security. This includes driving co-investment into Australia's critical minerals sector, strengthening defence capability, and working together to respond to evolving cyber threats.

A new Australia-Japan Leadership Dialogue will bring together leaders from government, business and the community to drive practical cooperation on shared priorities.

These initiatives elevate our Special Strategic Partnership with Japan and affirm our shared commitment to peaceful, stable and prosperous region.
