WASHINGTON -- U.S. President Joe Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will agree to explore closer cooperation between their nations' defense industries at their summit here April 10, a U.S. government source told Nikkei Asia.
The cooperation will not be limited to repairing U.S. naval ships at Japanese private shipyards but will also envision the co-development and co-production of munitions, planes and ships in the future.
