The UK is monitoring international developments in missile technology. We will continue to push for all countries to act responsibly in the international system.

The Foreign Secretary has discussed a range of defence and security issues with Foreign Minister Motegi, most recently on 22 September. We will continue to engage with our partners and allies on how we can collectively support the peace and stability of the Indo-Pacific region.
