Trump to talk trade, security with Japan’s new leader Takaichi

U.S. President Donald Trump will meet Japan’s new Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi in Tokyo on Tuesday for talks on trade and security, a week after the hardline conservative became Japan’s first female leader and vowed to accelerate a military buildup.

Takaichi is expected to offer a package of U.S. investments in a $550-billion deal agreed this year, including cooperation in shipbuilding.
