On April 23rd 2018, Africa-Asia Forum organized a visit to the Japan Embassy in France, in collaboration with Northeast Asia Initiative at Sciences Po.
We had the privilege to talk to His Excellency Mr. Masato KITERA, Ambassador of Japan to France, about his experience of diplomatic life as well as the long-lasting relations between France and Japan.
We also had the chance to discuss about Japan’s presence in Africa and MENA region, especially Japan’s corporation in various areas such as defense and renewable energies.
Divine éclairs made by a Japanese chef-pâtissier settled in Paris have been served, to the delight of all participants !

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to H.E. Ambassador KITERA and the personnel of the Japanese embassy who warmly welcomed us and contributed to the success of this event.

This visit was introduced on the official twitter account of the Ambassador:
