Japan-Korea Relations Nissho Chairman “Continuing Dialogue Including the Economic World” August 30 18:19

Regarding the current situation of Japan-Korea relations that are deteriorating, Mr. Mimura, President of the Japan Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said at the conference on the 30th: The economy was not affected by this, but this time it is affecting many things, such as security, and I am very worried. ”

President Mimura also said, “I believe that Japan's claims are correct from our point of view, and it is important to continue the claims made so far. It is very unfortunate that it has led to the movement, but it is not easy to repair the relationship, but what has happened so far is not favorable as a neighbor, but in a gradual form of continuing dialogue with the business community. We have no choice but to take the time to solve it. "

“We are concerned about the impact of trade friction between the United States and China”

At the press conference, Mr. Mimura said about the impact on the Japanese economy that the US and China will take measures to add import duties to each other on the 1st of next month. The ratio is as low as 14%, and the impact of trade friction between the United States and China is relatively small for the Japanese economy as a whole. "

On the other hand, he said, “I am worried because if the growth rate of the global economy as a whole falls, it will not have a positive effect on the Japanese economy.”
