President Trump praised Japan’s new prime minister, calling the U.S. and Japan allies “at the strongest level.”
Trump met Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi during his Asia trip — the first woman to hold the office in Japan.
The two leaders signed agreements to strengthen their alliance, including new investments and critical mineral deals.
Trump is seeking more than $500 billion in Japanese investments as part of a broader trade agreement.
The discussions also covered the war in Ukraine and North Korea, ahead of Trump’s expected meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping later this week.
