On Friday, President Donald Trump will host Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba at the White House for the first summit of the second Trump administration. Increasing challenges in the Indo-Pacific necessitate greater economic and security cooperation between the United States and its most important ally, Japan.
Hudson will welcome Senator Bill Hagerty, who served as ambassador to Japan in the first Trump administration, for remarks on the Japan Chair’s recent report, Past Lessons and Future Action: Policies for a Successful Free and Open Indo-Pacific, and the direction of the US-Japan alliance. The senator will then join Hudson Japan Chair Kenneth R. Weinstein for a fireside chat on how President Trump and Prime Minister Ishiba can work to address shared priorities.
