US-Japan Relations as Takachi Visits the White House

Kenneth Weinstein appears on BBC to discuss the United States–Japan relationship as Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and President Donald Trump meet in Washington, DC. He explains that Japan is unable to provide direct military support during the conflict in Iran due to its own constitution, but notes there will be opportunities for Tokyo to demonstrate its support following operations in Iran, including roles such as mine-sweeping and other non-combat contributions.
