Original title: Yoshihide Suga hopes to meet with Biden as soon as possible. Japanese Media – Eager to establish a “honeymoon relationship” with the new US government.

  Reference News Network reported on November 11 According to a Nikkei report on November 10, Biden has decided to win the US presidential election, and Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga intends to seek the possibility of visiting the United States in February next year. This movement aims to finalize the summit as soon as possible after the president’s inauguration on January 20 of next year, and demonstrates the stability of the Japan-United States alliance internally and externally.

An early summit meeting with the US president will reportedly reflect the closeness of Japan-US relations. In November 2016, then-Prime Minister Shinzo Abe visited the Trump Tower in New York before taking office and met with the president-elect. This practice of breaking convention and meeting with foreign dignitaries before taking office has also provided him with the opportunity to build a “honeymoon relationship” between Japan and the United States after taking office.

The report also indicated that the Japanese government believes that even if Biden is determined to win, the United States will not agree to contact before officially taking office this time. The Japanese side believes that the February summit meeting is the earliest possible time. The Japanese prime minister hopes to confirm the maintenance of close alliances in East Asia and the Indo-Pacific region during the first meeting.

The report noted that Japan will continue to seek the support of the United States on the North Korean issue.

In the security arena, issues such as Japan’s defense spending and the distribution of funds for the US military in Japan have reportedly become major issues. Japan hopes Bi can ease the pressure in this regard after he takes office.

Environmental issues may reportedly usher in a major turning point after the new government takes office. Yoshihide Suga will explain Japan’s previously proposed goal of achieving zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and urge the United States to adopt timed adjustment.
