Japan's Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato announced Tuesday that the country will carefully assess the policies of the new US administration before deciding on its response. Kato emphasized the importance of monitoring the global economic impact of the newly implemented measures.
The minister highlighted the need for Japan's central bank, the Bank of Japan (BoJ), to stay focused on achieving its 2% inflation target through appropriate monetary policies.
This comes as US President Donald Trump signed several executive orders, including the reversal of policies from the Biden administration.
