Trump, Japan’s PM Hold Phone Call on Ties
"We confirmed the close cooperation between Japan and the United States under the current international situation," Takaichi stated via the US social media platform X, describing Washington as an "important ally."
"At President Trump's invitation, we also concurred to coordinate in detail to realize my visit to the United States this spring," she added.
The Japanese leader termed the exchange "highly meaningful" as both nations reaffirmed the "close coordination of the Japan-US Alliance at the beginning of the new year."
"I look forward to working with President Trump to make 2026 a year in which we carve out a new chapter in the history of the Japan-U.S. Alliance," she added.

Takaichi, who first encountered Trump during his October visit to Japan, had previously indicated she was pursuing arrangements for an early 2026 summit with the American president.
