tokyo washington: We seek trade that is free, according to The Japan Times. We seek trade that is fair, he said at a news conference at the Prime Minister's Office. After Pence and Deputy Prime Minister Taro Aso held the first round of their high-level economic dialogue, Pence said Under President Trump's leadership, the United States seeks stronger and more balanced bilateral trade relationships with every country, including Japan. He added that the Trans-Pacific Partnership is a thing in the past. Earlier Tuesday, Pence said the Trump administration will also review and restyle a 5-year-old free trade agreement with South Korea. Following President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw the U.S. from the TPP, Tokyo and Washington may be moving toward a bilateral pact in line with Trump's preference against multilateral free trade deals.
