03.05.2025 โ‡ข Day of Japan's Firm Stand on Car Tariffs
โŒจUS-Japan trade tensions intensified as Japan took an uncompromising position on automobile tariffs. Economic Minister Akazawa declared that no agreement could be reached without revisiting car tariffs, with the Prime Minister demanding review of all tariffs. This hardened stance follows yesterday's rejection of the US framework that excluded auto tariffs from discussions.

Reports highlighted that over 50% of components in US-produced vehicles are imported, complicating tariff avoidance strategies for Japanese manufacturers after the US imposed 25% additional tariffs on auto parts.

International developments intertwined with domestic concerns as Australia's Albanese secured re-election by capitalizing on anti-Trump sentiment. Meanwhile, Trump continued pressuring the Federal Reserve for interest rate cuts while planning military parades for his birthday.

Constitutional revision discussions persisted, though analysis indicated that despite the Prime Minister's commitment to early amendment initiatives, actual revision remains distant.
