関税措置への反発がアメリカ国内でもじわじわと広がっていてアメリカ政府の元高官は各国との協議の先頭集団と位置づける日本との交渉にいち早く道筋をつけ、関税は、プラスだと国民にアピールする必要に迫られていると指摘します。
Resistance to tariff measures is gradually spreading within the United States, and a former high-ranking U.S. government official points out that there is a pressing need to quickly pave the way for negotiations with Japan, which is positioned as a leading group in talks with various countries, and to appeal to the public that tariffs are a positive thing.

When speaking with those involved in the negotiations, they said that the United States is demanding more substantial proposals from Japan while hinting at various negotiation cards such as across-the-board tariffs, reciprocal tariffs, and automobile tariffs, so it is expected that the upcoming talks will be tough.
