External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj today held "very productive" talks with her Japanese counterpart Taro Kono during which the two leaders discussed a wide-range of bilateral, regional and global issues of mutual interest.
Swaraj, who is here on a three-day visit -- her first to Japan in the capacity of External Affairs Minister -- reviewed the entire gamut of bilateral ties during the 9th India-Japan Strategic Dialogue.
"Foreign Minister Kono and I had very productive talks, covering a wide-range of bilateral, regional and global issues of mutual interest," Swaraj said.
Asserting that India regards Japan as a "natural partner", she said there is vast scope to combine "our relative advantages, whether of capital, technology or human resources, and to work for mutual benefit."
