JAPANESE BILL ON JAPANESE PARTICIPATION IN UN PEACE KEEPING OPERATIONS
1.
In your fax of 1 July to Michael Stone on the Japanese Bill, you asked for a line on the UK's position. This is as follows:
"HMG welcomes the passing of the Peace Keeping Operations Bill as it portrays a Japanese willingness to be involved in international affairs and HMG looks forward to continued cooperation with Japan in the United Nations."
2.
I hope this is of help to you.
Yours sincerely
