"in close contact" sounds a bit odd in this context. I realize this is one of those sentences from the original data base.
I would say "are interdependent".
Or to rewrite the sentence completely. "Nowadays there is a close relationship between foreign relations and domestic affairs."

We should still wait for 2 weeks before a corpus maintainer changes this.

Your rewrite ("Nowadays there is a close relationship between foreign relations and domestic affairs.") matches the Japanese. Perhaps, the Japanese should also be rewritten a bit.
