UK and Japan sign deal in London as Japan seeks to bolster ties

Japan
  • United kingdom and Japan have signed a new defence agreement.
  • The agreement also forms part of the UK’s Indo-Pacific tilt in foreign policy.
  • China criticized the move.

Japan and the United Kingdom have signed a “hugely significant” new defence agreement as Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida seeks to strengthen security ties with G7 partners in the wake of his country’s largest military buildup since World War II.

Kishida and Rishi Sunak, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, signed the agreement on Wednesday at the Tower of London, paving the way for the two countries to deploy forces on each other’s soil for training and other operations.

The signing of the reciprocal access defense agreement comes less than a month after the two countries collaborated with Italy on a new fighter jet program.

Kishida was in London as part of a tour of the Group of Seven countries, which includes France, Italy, Canada, and the United States.

Kishida was in London as part of a Group of Seven tours that also included France, Italy, Canada, and the USA.

Japan holds the G7 presidency and Kishida will host the group’s leaders for a summit in Hiroshima in May.

The Japan-UK agreement is the latest example of Tokyo’s efforts to fortify its alliances in the face of China’s “greatest strategic challenge ever” to its security.

The agreement also forms part of the UK’s Indo-Pacific tilt in foreign policy as it builds security and trade ties in the region.

Sunak’s office called Wednesday’s deal with Japan “the most significant defence agreement between the two countries in more than a century”.

“This Reciprocal Access Agreement is hugely significant for both of our countries; it cements our commitment to the Indo-Pacific and highlights our joint efforts to strengthen economic security,” Sunak said in a statement.

China, meanwhile, criticized the move, with foreign ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin saying the Asia Pacific region was “not an arena for geopolitical games”. “China was a partner for cooperation and “not a challenge”.

Netizen confused over rude chain restaurant’s staff in Australia

restaurant staff
  • Karen’s Diner is an international food chain themed to be intentionally mean to the guests.
  • A customer recorded their experience at the restaurant and the clip is now going viral.
  • The viral clip has amassed over 22.8 million views and over lakh likes on Twitter.

Good food and excellent service are two factors that make restaurant chains more approachable. However, there is one multinational restaurant company that is purposefully cruel to its customers. Karen’s Diner, a novelty restaurant chain, has locations in several countries, including Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. To keep their philosophy of offering rude service, the personnel can say whatever they wish to the consumers. A customer documented their visit to the curiously themed eatery, and the video is now going viral.

An employee is shown in the video with a cruel expression on their face smashing the food trays on the table. As if that weren’t enough, the staffer then gives the customer the middle finger before picking up what looks to be a potato ring off their dish and eating it. If this had happened anywhere else, the customer would have been irritated, but at Karen’s Diner, it ended up amused them. Near the end, the client, who appears to be recording the video, can be heard chuckling in the background.

View the video here:

The restaurant chain’s ‘We are rude’ attitude has divided the internet; although some believe eating food from a customer’s plate is excessive, many others believe it is appropriate. “Y’all Karen’s Diner is a novelty restaurant where they are intentionally mean to the guests,” one user remarked in defence of the establishment.

A man from New York visits 18 Michelin-starred restaurants in 24 hours, breaking the Guinness World Record.
