US President Donald Trump: We are going to work out the trade deficit with Japan
United States (US) President Donald Trump hit newswires for a second time on Friday, during a news conference with Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba. President Trump reiterated his desire to "work out" the US' trade deficit with Japan, which currently sits around $65 Billion per year. Shares in US Steel were halted on Friday after President Trump directly addressed his willingness to allow the takeover of the domestic metals producer by Japan-based Nippon Steel.
