WASHINGTON (Kyodo) -- The United States is increasingly recognizing the importance of Japan for its economy, the Asian country's chief tariff negotiator said Friday, after holding another round of talks with U.S. Cabinet members.
After meeting separately with U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick in Washington, Ryosei Akazawa said they were able to hold "more frank and in-depth discussions" than previously, and it would be "very desirable" for their leaders to reach some kind of agreement next month.
