Japan Trade Minister to visit US and seek guidance on TPP free trade talks
Japan’s Economy, Trade and Industry Minister Toshimitsu Motegi will be making a four-day visit to the United States this week, with one of his major goals to seek guidance on how to proceed with the Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade talks. The 18th round of talks between 11 countries began last July 15, with Japan set to become the 12th country to join the negotiations by Wednesday.
