Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with Japanese Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwaya in Tokyo on Tuesday, reassuring Japan that their bilateral ties are stronger than ever despite the recent U.S. decision to block Nippon Steel's $14.9 billion bid for U.S. Steel. The two countries emphasized the importance of Japan-U.S. economic relations, including investments by Japanese companies in the U.S.
