- Japan's Trade Minister Yoji Muto will visit Washington from March 9-11 to discuss economic ties with U.S. senior officials, the trade ministry announced on Friday.

The Asahi newspaper reported late last month that Muto would visit with the hope of gaining exemptions on proposed tariffs on key Japanese export items such as cars and steel.

Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba met President Donald Trump in Washington in early February, where the two leaders discussed Japanese companies' investment and job creation in the U.S.
