Tokyo, Jan. 29 (Jiji Press)--Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and U.S. President Donald Trump are seen agreeing to start bilateral trade negotiations at their planned meeting in Washington set for Feb. 10, informed sources have said.
As Trump puts emphasis on one-on-one trade negotiations, Japan at least needs to accept talks because it hopes to maintain its firm alliance with the United States, according to the sources.
But the upcoming summit, the first between the two leaders since Trump took office on Jan. 20, is unlikely to go into detail. Tokyo hopes to closely watch what moves the United States will make.
On Saturday, Abe and Trump had a telephone conversation. The White House said the two promised to deepen bilateral trade and investment relations.
As Trump recently expressed his frustration with automobile trade between the two countries, Abe told the U.S. president that Japanese companies including automakers have contributed to the U.S. economy by making investments and creating jobs.
