Analysis of PM Modi’s Japan visit

Prime Minister Narendra Modi visits Japan among the US and tariff tensions. Japan is a friendly country in India. During his visit, Prime Minister Modi visited the Temple of Status in Tokyo, where the priest of the temple presented him a baby called Bebek to the Japanese language. In Japan, it is believed that life is full of happiness and prosperity after the wish is fulfilled with the help of a baby.

For a decade, Japan has set an investment target of 10 trillion (approximately 60,000 CR) in India for ten years, and the two sides sealed a series of big ticket pacts, including a 10 -year roadmap to greatly increase a framework and economic partnership for defense ties.

The two sides made 13 basic agreements and declarations and announced that various transformative attempts, including an economic security architecture to promote supply chain flexibility in strategic sectors such as semiconductors, clean energy, telecom, pharmaceuticals, critical minerals and new and emerging technologies, have been initiated.

India and Japan are trying to deal with Trump’s solid tariff. Trump brought a total of 50 percent tariffs to India. Japan faces a similar situation. America has applied 24 percent of Japan products to most of its products, but there is a 25 percent tariff in vehicle and automobile components produced in Japan. Not only that, the Trump government has brought a tariff up to 50 percent for steel and aluminum exported from Japan, that is, the United States brought a large tariff to all expensive products exported from Japan.

US President Donald Trump did the same thing as Japan and India. Trump asked Russia to stop buying oil from Russia. When India rejected this unfounded demand, Trump brought a 50 percent tariff.

Similarly, the US government asked Japanese companies to produce in the USA. Japan reluctantly accepted, but ultimately did not sacrifice his interests to Trump. Like India, Japan responded strongly to Trump’s tariffs. For this reason, a strong economic alliance in South Asia and East Asia is believed to be in the form of India and Japan.
