- discussed all issues but no agreement as yet
- talks will continue
- substance of Japan’s talk should determine timetable
Further to my post yesterday it seems like there is still a mountain to climb
Japan’s econ min Amari says:
- had an honest exachange of views
- talks made progress on some areas but no common ground on others
- still quite a distance between US and Japan on these talks
- reached a closer understanding on each other’s position
