U.S.-Japan Relations Under the Trump Administration 2.0

In this thought-provoking discussion, Richard Fontaine, CEO of CNAS and co-author of “Lost Decade”; and Ken Jimbo, president of Asia Pacific Initiative at the International House of Japan, analyze how U.S.-Japan relations are being reshaped under the second Trump administration. Moderated by Jesper Koll, chair of policy committee at Asia Society Japan, the conversation explores key questions surrounding shifting U.S. foreign policy assumptions, the evolving role of alliances in Asia, and how Japan is adapting to a more transactional and unpredictable America.
