Remarks by His Majesty the Emperor at the State Banquet in Honour of Their Majesties King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima of the Netherlands (October 29, 2014)
The SieboldHuis in the Netherlands, which reopened in 2005 after renovations, plays a major role as a new symbol of Japanese-Dutch exchange. I hope that the peoples of our two countries, by maintaining a mutual interest in one another, will be able to further build on their historical exchanges and develop new cooperative ties.
