Reuters reported on the 23rd (local time) that Japan's purchase of 100 aircraft from the U.S. Boeing Company is included in the trade agreement between the U.S. and Japan.
On the same day, Reuters, citing a White House official, reported, "As part of the U.S.-Japan trade agreement, Japan has agreed to purchase 100 Boeing aircraft and increase imports of U.S. rice by 75%."
The official noted, "In expanding Japan's imports of U.S. rice, Japan will maintain its current World Trade Organization (WTO) low-tariff quota level of about 770,000 tons, increasing the proportion of U.S. rice within that quota."
He also stated that Japan will purchase $8 billion (about 11 trillion won) worth of U.S. products in agriculture and other sectors, and will expand its procurement scale from U.S. corporations in defense expenditure from the current annual $14 billion (approximately 19 trillion won) to $17 billion (approximately 23 trillion won).
Previously, the U.S. and Japan finalized their trade negotiations on the 22nd. The reciprocal tariff on Japan by the U.S. is 15%, which is reduced by 10 percentage points from the initially announced 25%.
U.S. President Donald Trump announced the completion of this trade negotiation through social media, saying, "Japan agreed to increase the level of market opening for automobiles and some agricultural products, while committing to an investment of $550 billion (approximately 757 trillion won) in the U.S."
