[The US and Japan have different opinions on the $550 billion investment] US President Trump said on July 22 that the United States and Japan reached a trade agreement, but differences in the interpretation of the agreement have gradually emerged recently, with one focus being Japan's commitment to invest $550 billion in the United States. Japanese Minister of Economic Revitalization Ryomasa Akasawa said on July 27 that it is not appropriate to formulate a joint document on the Japan-US tariff negotiation agreement at this time. He pointed out that tariff cuts may take time. Confirmation work needs to be carried out between the US minister and Trump, which may have an impact on the content of the agreement. The Nihon Keizai Shimbun reported that the reason for the discrepancy between the statements and explanations of Japan and the United States is that, unlike usual trade negotiations, no agreement document jointly compiled by both parties was formulated this time.
