US and Japanese officials are working hard to reach agreement on a bilateral trade agreement, a senior Japanese official told Reuters on July 17, adding he was looking forward to news on the deal in the near future.
Three
industry sources told Reuters on July 16 that the United
States and Japan
were working on a small trade deal involving agriculture and autos that could
be agreed by President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Shinzo Abe when they
meet in New York
in September.
Asked about progress in the
bilateral trade talks, Koji Tomita, Japan's sherpa to the Group of 20 industrialized
countries (G20), said, "When President Trump came to Japan at the
end of May, he was talking about doing a deal as soon as possible. Our team is
now working pretty hard, so we are looking forward to some news in the near
future."
