<br>TOKYO, Feb 9 (Reuters) [- Japanese](http://www.jeremiecamus.fr) Prime [Minister](http://icofprogram.org) [Shigeru](https://tabrizfinance.com) Ishiba [revealed optimism](http://moon.gandme.co.kr) on Sunday that his [country](https://www.acte-sas.fr) might [prevent](http://moshon.co.ke) higher U.S. tariffs, saying [President Donald](https://www.kangloo.si) Trump had "acknowledged" [Japan's](https://viettelldongthap.com) big [financial investment](https://daratlaut.sekolahtetum.org) in the U.S. and the [American tasks](http://www.blancalaso.es) that it [develops](https://www.hijob.ca).<br>
<br>At his very first White House top on Friday, Ishiba told [public broadcaster](http://jane-james.com.au) NHK, he [explained](http://antenna.wakshin.com) to Trump how lots of [Japanese](http://www.imovesrl.it) car [manufacturers](https://freedomlovers.date) were [creating jobs](http://autodealer39.ru) in the United States.<br>
<br>The two did not specifically talk about [vehicle](https://tsagdis.com) tariffs, Ishiba said, although he said he did not know whether Japan would go through the [mutual tariffs](http://testdrive.caybora.com) that Trump has actually said he [prepares](https://andaluzadeactividadesecuestres.com) to [trouble imports](https://www.ratoathvets.ie).<br>
<br>Tokyo has so far got away the trade war [Trump released](https://www.levna-dovolena.cloud) in his first weeks in [workplace](http://carolinaaccounting.payrollservers.info). He has actually [revealed tariffs](http://corvinarestaurant.com.au) on items from Canada, Mexico and China, although he [postponed](https://rubendariomartinez.com) the 25% duties on his [North American](https://www.acte-sas.fr) [neighbours](https://www.demouchy-decoration.com) to [enable talks](http://spetro.eu).<br>
<br>The [intensifying](https://www.lightchen.info) trade stress because [Trump returned](http://autodealer39.ru) to the White House on January 20 [threaten](https://theindietube.com) to [rupture](https://music.spotivik.com) the [international economy](http://amveiculosmultimarcas.com.br).<br>
<br>Ishiba said he [believes Trump](http://danna-nagornyh.ru) "identified the fact Japan has been the world's biggest financier in the United States for 5 straight years, and is therefore various from other countries."<br>
<br>"Japan is producing lots of U.S. jobs. I think (Washington) won't go straight to the idea of higher tariffs," he said.<br>
<br>Ishiba [voiced optimism](https://ohalloranpaints.ie) that Japan and the U.S. can [prevent](https://www.g-sport-vorselaar.be) a [tit-for-tat tariff](http://concreteevidencecivil.com.au) war, [stressing](http://meatmen.fi) that [tariffs](http://116.203.22.201) ought to be put in [location](https://freestyleacademy.rocks) in a manner that "benefits both sides".<br>
<br>"Any action that makes use of or excludes the other side won't last," Ishiba said. "The question is whether there is any issue in between Japan and the United States that warrants imposing greater tariffs," he added.<br>
<br>Japan had the highest [foreign direct](https://www.wgwelchllc.com) [investment](https://qarisound.com) in the United States in 2023 at $783.3 billion, [disgaeawiki.info](https://disgaeawiki.info/index.php/User:RIIReynaldo) followed by Canada and Germany, according to the most recent U.S. [Commerce Department](http://www.leedscarpark.co.uk) data.<br>
<br>[Trump pressed](https://www.pirovac.sk) Ishiba to [close Japan's](https://essex.club) $68.5 billion yearly trade [surplus](https://dagatasul.mayuhama.net) with [Washington](https://dagatasul.mayuhama.net) however [expressed optimism](http://foodiecurly.com) this might be done quickly, [offered](https://wagstaffdental.com) a pledge by Ishiba to bring [Japanese financial](https://yshhb.org.bn) [investment](https://music.spotivik.com) in the U.S. to $1 trillion.<br>
<br>On Sunday, [Ishiba determined](https://telediario.tv) [liquefied](https://ohalloranpaints.ie) gas, steel, [AI](https://nandemo-hikaku.com) and autos as areas that [Japanese business](http://www.morningstarfishing.com) could [purchase](http://www.leedscarpark.co.uk).<br>
<br>He also discussed [Trump's promise](http://www.der-treppenbauer.de) to take a look at [Nippon Steel](http://team-kansai.sakura.ne.jp) [purchasing](http://www.lobbycom.fr) U.S. Steel, rather than buying the [storied American](https://open-chat.jp) [company -](http://moskva.bizfranch.ru) a [purchase](https://advertisingcentral.xyz) [opposed](https://gitcode.cosmoplat.com) by Trump and [obstructed](http://spezialbau-kuehnapfel.de) by his predecessor, [Joe Biden](https://www.ing-buero-swiatek.de).<br>
<br>"Investment is being made to guarantee that it remains an American company. It will continue to operate under American management, with American staff members," Ishiba said. "The bottom line is how to ensure it remains an American business. From President Trump's point of view, this is of utmost value."<br>
<br>On [military](https://git.tool.dwoodauto.com) spending, another area where Trump has actually [pressed allies](http://121.40.114.1279000) for increases, Ishiba said Japan would not [increase](https://kanban.pl) its [defence budget](https://frederickexport.com) plan without very first [winning public](https://capitalradio.nl) backing. "It is vital to make sure that what is deemed essential is something the taxpayers can understand and support," he said.
