‘We Have a Good Chemistry’: Inside Trump’s Meeting with Japan PM

“Think it will work out very well for everybody”.

Trump did not provide any specifics about the new security measures and reiterated that he expects to eventually win the case over his immigration order.

In response to the launch, South Korea held a National Security Council meeting at the presidential Blue House, which was chaired by Kim Kwan Jin, the presidential national security director. He said Trump has assured him of US support and that Trump’s presence showed the president’s determination and commitment. “We will be on that field and we will all be working very hard to do great for our country but it has to be fair and we will make it fair”.

On Friday, he became the second world leader to meet with Trump at the White House.

Mr. Trump said the two countries face numerous challenges and bilateral cooperation is essential to address them. “This administration is committed to bringing those ties even closer”, he added.

Later, Jacobs tweeted that Japanese reporters were also in the room, and it wasn’t clear if “US side or Japan side vetoed golf pix”.

“Abe has studied Trump well”, noted CNN’s David Chalian. Former President Barack Obama was the first president to confirm the application, in 2014.

“We are fully aware of President Trump’s decision”.

“Donald, president, you are an excellent businessman, but you have never been in the Congress or been a governor”.

Prime Minister Abe spent a significant portion of his first meeting with Trump since the president was sworn in explaining, with data, how Japanese companies, including automakers, have built plants across the United States to manufacture products domestically and have helped create jobs.

Abe pledged Japan would help create USA jobs, hoping to persuade Trump to turn down the heat on economic matters and stand by the alliance. It is not easy for Japan to counter China’s military pressure by itself. Trump may not have “hung up” on Turnbull as first reported, but he damaged relations with a decades-old ally that was already drifting into Beijing’s orbit. “With the latest magnetic technology from Washington, D.C., up to NY where Trump Tower exists, only one hour would it take if you ride the MagLev train from Washington, D.C., to NY”.

Mr Abe and Mr Trump’s joint statement was made at the Jupiter golf club, which the US President owns. “And also we are going to further reinforce our alliance”.

He patted Abe’s hand twice and at one point appears to jerk Abe toward him before he is released as an off-screen voice says, ‘Thank you press’.

Mr. Trump and Mr. Abe discussed opportunities and challenges facing their economies and the need to promote inclusive growth and prosperity in their countries, the Asia-Pacific region, and the world.
