The United States and Japan have agreed to strengthen military cooperation, reduce the number of U.S. Marines from Okinawa and give Tokyo greater responsibility for security in the Pacific.
Calling the alliance the anchor of regional stability, the agreement gives Japan more responsibility for its own defense and an enhanced security role in the region. The decisions were part of an American effort to streamline its military overseas and create a leaner, more flexible fighting force.
