SRES 626 is a Senate resolution expressing the U.S. Senate's support for the U.S.-Japan alliance and welcoming Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's April 2024 visit to the United States. It reaffirms the alliance's role in promoting peace and security in the Indo-Pacific, highlights Japan's defense modernization efforts (including a goal to reach 2% GDP defense spending by 2027), and supports trilateral security cooperation with South Korea and other partners. As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new policy or directly affect individuals but formally underscores shared commitments to security, economic ties, and democratic values.
