Prime Minister's statement on the earthquakes in Japan: 1 January 2024

My thoughts are with all those affected by the earthquakes in Japan which have caused such terrible damage.

Prime Minister Fumio Kishida is a great friend of the UK and we stand ready to support Japan and are monitoring developments closely.

British nationals in the affected areas should follow the advice of the Japanese authorities.
