Japanese Prime Minister: The US and Japan have yet to reach a protocol, and Japan should not easily concede.

BlockBeats news, on July 8, Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba stated that due to Japan's insistence on defending its rightful interests, no agreement has yet been reached between the (U.S.-Japan) parties. Japan will continue to maintain dialogue with the United States, seeking to reach an agreement that is beneficial to both sides. Through past negotiations with the United States, Japan has successfully avoided tariffs rising to 30% to 35%. The United States has proposed to continue discussions until the new deadline of August 1. The announcement of increased tariffs by the United States is deeply regrettable. So far, no consensus has been reached on the agreement because Japan and the United States have engaged in tough negotiations, believing that Japan should not concede easily. (Jin10)
