川普與安倍兩天會談未達貿易協議
Despite frequent assurances that they continue to enjoy a warm friendship, U.S. President Donald Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe over two days of talks apparently failed to bridge significant differences on major trade issues.
Trump declared his discussions with Abe “extremely productive,” but few details of success emerged during their joint news conference on Wednesday.
“President Trump and I agreed to start talks for free, fair and reciprocal trade deals,” said Abe, without providing specifics.
Trump expressed his preference for a country-to-country “free trade agreement” between the United States and Japan, while Abe bluntly called for Washington to re-enter what was previously the 12-nation Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP).
Trump pulled the United States from the comprehensive trade pact shortly after taking office.
Japan's position is “TPP is the best for both of our countries,” Abe told reporters during the news conference at Trump's private resort on the Florida Atlantic coast.
Trump also did not lift steel and aluminum tariffs on Japan, despite previously giving other U.S. allies exemptions.
雖然美國總統川普和日本首相安倍晉三一再表示他們繼續保持彼此間的友誼，但是兩位領導人在兩天來的會談中看來未能彌合在一些重大貿易問題上的分歧。
川普總統稱他與安倍的討論“極為富有成效”，但是兩人在星期三的聯合記者會上沒有提任何具體的成功。
安倍首相說：“川普總統和我同意為達成自由、公平以及對等的貿易協議開始會談。”他沒有提供任何詳細信息。
川普總統表示希望美國和日本達成雙邊的“自由貿易協議”，但是安倍首相直接呼吁美國重新加入原來12個國家計劃成立的跨太平洋伙伴關系協議（TPP）。
川普就任美國總統后退出了這個范圍廣泛的貿易協議。
安倍在佛羅里達州川普總統擁有的私人莊園召開的記者會上說，日本認為，“跨太平洋伙伴關系協議符合兩國的最佳利益”。
川普總統也沒有宣布取消對日本的鋼鋁產品加征關稅。美國此前曾宣布免除其他一些盟國的鋼鋁關稅。
