Indonesia. The Philippines. Now, Japan.
President Trump announced that his administration has reached a trade deal with Japan this week; he says there has “never been anything like it.”
The $550B trade deal will create hundreds of thousands of American jobs.
“We just completed a massive Deal with Japan, perhaps the largest Deal ever made,” Trump wrote on TRUTH Social. “Japan will invest, at my direction, $550 Billion Dollars into the United States, which will receive 90% of the Profits. This Deal will create Hundreds of Thousands of Jobs — There has never been anything like it.”
Trump said Japan will open its country to trade in things like cars, trucks, rice and other agricultural products. Japan will also pay reciprocal tariffs of 15% to the U.S., under the deal.
“This is a very exciting time for the United States of America, and especially for the fact that we will continue to always have a great relationship with the Country of Japan,” Trump said.
