New US ambassador to Japan says he is optimistic two sides will reach deal over tariffs

New US Ambassador to Japan, George Glass, expressed optimism about reaching a tariff deal between the two nations upon his arrival in Tokyo. Negotiations follow initial talks in Washington, where both countries aimed for a swift agreement. Despite existing tariffs, including those on auto exports, Glass believes a resolution is possible due to the involvement of top officials and President Trump's commitment to reshaping American economics.
