💨 Abstract

Japan's trade minister, Yoji Muto, requested the US to avoid imposing trade tariffs on Japan, particularly the 25% steel and aluminum duty starting March 12. Muto met with US officials to discuss this issue, highlighting Japan's significant investments in the US economy and job creation. However, no assurance of exemption was received.
