TOKYO, May 16 (Sputnik) – Russian and Japanese priorities in cooperation coincide 80 percent, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Trutnev said Monday.
During Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s visit to Sochi at the beginning of May, he presented an 8-point bilateral economic plan between the two countries.
