Trump was urged to reconsider by the Japanese prime minister after receiving a phone call informing him that his tax policies were incredibly unsatisfactory.
We also have a positive connection with Japan, he said. Trump later said to reporters on Monday,” We’re going to keep it that way.”

According to Japan’s Nikkei paper, Ishiba summoned important financial ministers on Sunday night, including Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato, and instructed them to be watchful and react to industry developments.
