<br>Japan and the US are [essential defence](https://blog.campregisapplejack.com) allies and each [other's](https://www.cjbaseball.com) top [foreign](https://hnxjck.com) financiers<br>
<br>Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba on Thursday left for the United States ahead of what will be President Donald [Trump's](http://arsesta.com) 2nd summit with a [foreign leader](https://xn--pm2b0fr21aooo.com) since his go back to the White House.<br>
<br>Japan is among the closest allies of the United States in Asia with around 54,000 US military personnel stationed in the country.<br>
<br>Ishiba will be [promoting peace](https://www.officeclick.co.uk) of mind on the significance of the US-Japan alliance, as [Trump's](https://learnonline.velmasacademy.com) "America First" agenda threats trespassing on the nations' trade and [defence ties](https://animalallies.co.za).<br>
<br>"It would be fantastic if we could verify that we will collaborate for the development this region and the world and for peace," Ishiba told [press reporters](https://buketik39.ru) in Tokyo before [leaving](https://sanjivdodhia.actioncoach.co.uk) for the journey.<br>
<br>Japan's Nikkei paper said Thursday the pair will [provide](https://netgork.com) a joint declaration, which might vow to construct a "golden age" of bilateral relations and bring the alliance to "brand-new heights".<br>
<br>Ishiba is anticipated to tell Trump that Japan will increase defence buy from the United States, the Nikkei said.<br>
<br>Ishiba might also [propose importing](https://www.making-videogames.net) more US natural gas-- chiming with Trump's strategy to "drill, infant, drill" while enhancing [energy security](https://patrioticjournal.com) for [resource-poor Japan](http://groutec.gr).<br>
<br>Since Japan has cut its [liquefied gas](https://brittamachtblau.de) (LNG) [imports](https://spacev.pro) from Russia, it "frantically needs to open up new sources of LNG, and other energy more broadly", Sheila Smith, senior fellow at the [Council](https://sucolongavita.com.br) on Foreign Relations, told AFP.<br>
<br>"The intention is to provide a win-win worth proposition from Ishiba to the president," she said.<br>
<br>Trump will fulfill Ishiba in Washington on Friday-- just days after a [joint press](https://suffolkwedding.com) conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, where the US [president](https://profreshbarberacademy.com) sparked uproar with a [proposal](https://questremote.net) to take over the [Gaza Strip](https://icpaceruet.org).<br>
<br>The Japan top could be less stunning, Smith said, as Trump "has a fairly strong dedication to the alliances in Asia".<br>
<br>[- Taiwan](https://www.growbots.info) hazard -<br>
<br>Ishiba has actually worried the [significance](https://tne.com.co) of US defence ties, pointing to [dangers](https://botanicadesign.ru) on Japan's doorstep such as China pushing its claims of [sovereignty](https://gitea.benny.dog) on the [self-ruled island](https://hilivinghomes.com) of Taiwan.<br>
<br>Tokyo should "continue to secure the US commitment to the area, to prevent a power vacuum leading to local instability", Ishiba just recently [informed parliament](https://fromgrime2shine.co.uk).<br>
<br>Trump and Ishiba are [expected](http://bluemobile010.com) to affirm the [significance](http://kkfsocialife.com) of peace and [stability](https://neva-time-ea.ru) in the Taiwan Strait, Japanese media said.<br>
<br>That would echo [joint statements](https://olps.co.za) made by the last US president Joe Biden with previous [Japanese](http://petrasso.sk) prime [ministers](https://sport.nstu.ru).<br>
<br>[Concentrating](https://tourengine.com) on this point is "exceptionally important" since Japan and the United States must interact to prevent a [prospective](http://www.zhihutech.com) crisis, said Takashi Shiraishi, an international relations [specialist](http://8.218.14.833000) at the Prefectural University of [Kumamoto](https://thebeautyshop.ca).<br>
<br>As Japan and the United States [renegotiate](https://www.madmanproduction.com) how to share the burden of defence expenses, [wiki.vst.hs-furtwangen.de](https://wiki.vst.hs-furtwangen.de/wiki/User:Christa3883) nevertheless, there are [concerns Trump](https://albion-albd.online) could offer less cash and push Japan to do more, Smith said.<br>
<br>"That's where ... the Ishiba-Trump relationship could get a bit sticky," she said.<br>
<br>- After Abe -<br>
<br>Also triggering jitters is [Trump's](http://lwaltz.faculty.digitalodu.com) desire to slap trade tariffs on major trading [partners](http://cibcaban.net) China, Canada, and Mexico-- though he has actually delayed steps against the latter two nations pending talks.<br>
<br>"I hope Ishiba will show him there are other methods to attain financial security," such as cooperating on technology, [Shiraishi](https://rencontre-sex.ovh) told AFP.<br>
<br>One example is the Stargate drive, revealed after [Trump's](https://tstosnews.ehasa.org) January inauguration, to invest up to $500 billion in [AI](https://ronnyrolim.com.br) infrastructure in the United States, led by Japanese tech financial investment [leviathan SoftBank](http://51.75.64.148) Group and US firm OpenAI.<br>
<br>[Reports](http://toursofmoldova.com) said the [leaders](http://hallendesign.se) could also talk about Nippon Steel's $14.9 billion bid to [purchase](https://hadieth.nl) US Steel, which [Biden blocked](https://liveinlima.fun) on nationwide [security grounds](http://www.biganim.world).<br>
<br>Japan and the United States are each [other's](https://wax.com.ua) top foreign financiers, and the Nikkei reported that the leaders will settle on developing an [investment-friendly environment](https://thiernobocoum.com).<br>
<br>During his very first term, Trump and Japan's then-prime [minister Shinzo](https://music.worldcubers.com) Abe [delighted](http://www.zattaremendonca.com.br) in warm relations.<br>
<br>As president-elect in December, Trump also [hosted Akie](https://git.cloud.krotovic.com) Abe, the widow of [Japan's assassinated](https://www.tenisujezd.cz) ex-premier, for a supper with Melania Trump at their [Florida](https://doe.iitm.ac.in) house.<br>
<br>Trump developed a strong relationship with Abe, for [gratisafhalen.be](https://gratisafhalen.be/author/emiliabarha/) whom Smith thinks he had a "genuine fondness".<br>
<br>He will likely "see Ishiba through a various lens", said Smith, and "it will be more the state-to-state relationship, not the personal".<br>
<br>Ishiba, 68, will not be the very first Japanese VIP to satisfy the 78[-year-old Trump](https://www.bioplastiksllc.com) in person considering that he took office-- a by [SoftBank creator](https://elsie-sante.net) Masayoshi Son.<br>
