Japanese Prime Minister's Assistant: Japan must be prepared for Trump to impose tariffs. Japanese Prime Minister's Assistant Akihisa Nagashima said that Japan needs to be prepared for US President-elect Trump's threat to impose tariffs on China, Canada and Mexico, and adjust the supply chain to reduce the collateral damage suffered by Japanese enterprises. In an interview with the media on Thursday, Akihisa Nagashima said that he had "frank" communication with Trump team members on tariff issues during his recent visit to the United States. "I realized that Japan must be ready for Trump to implement his plan," he said. Akihisa Nagashima said that these tariff measures may encourage Japan to reduce its dependence on these three countries, where some Japanese companies operate and parts made in Japan are transported to these three countries to manufacture finished products for export to the United States. "Japanese companies will certainly try to restructure the supply chain," he pointed out. "This is economically reasonable."
