Kyodo News Agency reported on January 8 that the Japanese government has coordinated the direction of continuing to maintain business-related personnel who have reached agreements with 11 countries and regions, including China and South Korea.
Although a comprehensive suspension has been discussed before, the government may think that it is necessary to negotiate with the other party, and it is difficult to stop it all. Several government officials revealed the news on the 7th.
On December 28 last year, in view of the spread of the coronavirus epidemic, the Japanese government suspended the entry of foreigners who were allowed under certain conditions, but maintained business contacts with close-connected countries.
But this year, the situation turned to another emergency declaration to 1 capital and 3 counties, and the government discussed suspending exchanges with 11 countries and regions.
At present, it is decided to suspend it individually if the other party confirms that the mutant novel coronavirus will be suspended.
In view of the fact that Prime Minister Saga has always attached importance to balancing economic activities and epidemic prevention measures, relevant people of the Liberal Democratic Party expressed their view that “maintaining business contacts strongly reflects the Prime Minister’s will”.
