The European Commission and Japan have successfully concluded negotiations on Japan's association to Horizon Europe, the EU's flagship €93.5 billion research and innovation funding programme. The agreement, expected to be signed in 2026, represents the closest form of collaboration offered by the EU to global partners in this field. It will enable Japanese researchers to lead and coordinate their own research and innovation projects under the programme, to apply and receive funding, and to seek closer collaboration with partners in the EU and other associated countries.

Fuck it, let them be part of the European Union. In fact, all sane countries can come, including Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Iceland (why tf are they not already??), Japan and South Korea.

Which others am I missing?

A Coalition of the Sane would be nice.
