Japan Seeks Fairness In Currency Talks With US, PM Ishiba Says

Quick Summary:

Japan will emphasise “fairness” in any discussions with the US on exchange rates, Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba said on Sunday (Apr 20), as bilateral trade talks grab global attention in President Donald Trump’s tariff offensive.

Trump has hit Japan with 24 per cent tariffs on its exports to the US, although, like most of Trump’s levies, they have been paused until early July.

Nikkei Asia reported on Sunday that Japan is considering relaxing auto safety rules for imports as part of its tariff negotiations with the US.
