(1) Japan will befriend the USA, regardless of who is your president.
(2) Japan will keep on good terms with the USA, no matter who is your president.
(3) Japan will keep on good terms with the USA, whoever would be your president.

(1) から　(３)へ、少しフォーマルからカジュアルになると思います。"befriend"とは微妙に文語です。相手がアメリカ人でしたら、presidentを特定するためにはyour presidentを入れると良いです。「誰であれ」に対しては、regardlessは固く、no matterはより砕けた言い方になるかと思います。

It does not matter who the president is, Japan wants to get along with the USA.
Regardless of who the president is, Japan will get along with the USA.

You can say "It does not matter who the president is" Or "Regardless of who the president is." Both of these terms explain that Japan does not care who the president is. Japan will get along with the USA/America. The term USA can be replaced with America.

"It does not matter who the president is" 誰が大統領であってもということができます。または、"Regardless of who the president is."誰が大統領にかかわらずということができます。どちらも、日本は誰が大統領でも構わないという意味です。 Japan will get along with the USA/America. 日本はアメリカとうまくやっていくでしょう。 USA と America. は互換性があります。どちらでもいいです。

Regardless of the president, Japan will always have a special relationship with the USA
No matter who the president is, Japan has a fond regard for the USA

A special relationship - in this context, it means positive vand friendly. However, in other contexts this phrase may need further explanation as to why it is special. No matter... = You use no matter in expressions such as 'no matter how' and 'no matter what' to say that something is true or happens in all circumstances. "No matter what your age, you can lose weight by following this program." "No matter how often they were urged, they could not bring themselves to join in." "Jenkins would reward all investors, no matter when they made their investment."

A special relationship - この文脈だと、友好的などポジティブな意味になる。ただし、文脈次第では、なぜ特別なのかを答える必要がでてくる。 No matter... = No matter howやno matter whatのように、どんな状況下であろうと起こることであったり、事実であったりをいう時の表現のひとつです。 "No matter what your age, you can lose weight by following this program."　いくつだろうと、このプログラムをやれば体重は減るよ "No matter how often they were urged, they could not bring themselves to join in." いくらけしかけようと、彼らは参加してくれなかった・ "Jenkins would reward all investors, no matter when they made their investment."　Jenkinsはいつ投資したかに関係なく、全ての投資家に報酬をあげた。
