Japan PM presses US for tariff exemption

Published on March 27, 2025 at 08:08 PM

Japanese Prime Minister, Shigeru Ishiba, on Thursday, expressed deep regret over the US decision to impose a 25-per cent additional tariff on automobiles.

Ishiba, therefore, instructed related officials to persistently negotiate for Japan’s exemption.

A local media Nikkei, said that Ishiba held a 50-minute discussion at the Prime Minister’s Office with Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwaya, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi, and other key officials.

Following the meeting, Iwaya told reporters that Japan would assess the impact on its industrial sector.

He appealed, through various channels, for tariff exemption.

Hayashi also condemned the move saying “it is extremely regrettable.”;

He warned that it could significantly impact Japan-U.S. economic relations, the global economy, and the multilateral trade system.

The Prime Minister’s directive outlined three key measures, including urging the U.S. to exclude Japan from the tariff measures and assessing the impact on domestic industries and employment.

“He said this would ensure financial support measures, and coordination of a government-wide response in collaboration with relevant ministers,”; Nikkei reported.
