What's next for U.S.-Japan relations after Biden blocks U.S. steel takeover bid?
For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video Japanese Prime Minister described the Biden administration's decision to block the sale of U.S. steel to Nippon as "perplexing." Nippon's $14.9 billion bid was rejected over "national security concerns," casting doubt over the strength of U.S.-Japan relations and delivering a blow to America's image as a beacon of free trade and investment. In this edition of The Hub, Wang Guan asks experts if there is still a free trade party in the U.S.? Benoit Hardy-Chartrand, faculty lecturer in the Department of Political Science and International Affairs at Temple University Japan, believes the fallout represents only a "bump in the road" in otherwise healthy U.S.-Japan relations, while Einar Tangen, commentator on current affairs, says it points to an issue of "trust" and may have far-reaching consequences. "If you don't trust your closest allies, it means you don't really trust anybody, and a country or individual who trusts nobody is inherently untrustworthy. This is not a small incident."
