TOKYO – Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi may visit the United States around March 20 for talks with President Donald Trump, diplomatic sources said Sunday, as she aims to reaffirm the solid bilateral alliance ahead of Trump’s trip to China.
Japan and the United States have already begun arrangements for Takaichi’s first visit since she became premier last October, with her itinerary likely to be finalized after an expected general election next month, according to the sources.
