0:29Now PlayingPresident Donald Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba will discuss bolstering foreign investment in the US, including cooperation on defense, artificial intelligence, semiconductors and cybersecurity, according to senior administration officials.
The senior administration officials offered the details on condition of anonymity Friday, ahead of upcoming talks between Trump and Ishiba. The Japanese premier is visiting Washington for his first meeting with the US president in a bid to shore up economic and defense links between the major allies.
Trump’s second-term agenda has unnerved not just US adversaries but many longtime allies as well, as the new president threatens tariffs on neighbors Canada and Mexico and demands that partners such as Denmark and Panama hand over territory.
Japan is one of the US’s closest allies and trading partners and Ishiba will be eager to avoid any economic fallout from Trump’s sweeping tariff threats — which the US president has vowed to levy on friendly nations as well as antagonists — and reaffirm his country’s security alliance with Washington.
