Japan’s Amari: It is difficult to reach trade deal with US by August

Japan’s lower house member, Akira Amari, has been on wires recently. The Liberal Democratic Party member cited lesser chances to reach a trade deal with the US by August.

Mr. Amari previously spoke in favor of the planned sales tax hike.

The Japanese politician revealed his dislike from the US behavior by saying that the US deal won't mean that only Japan makes concessions.
