Japan, U.S. yet to find common ground on tariffs but want quick deal
By Takuya Karube, KYODO NEWS - 2 hours ago - 12:50 | All, Japan, World Japan and the United States have "yet to find common ground" on tariff issues, Tokyo's top negotiator said Friday, indicating that there remain many differences between the sides, but they still aim to clinch a win-win deal in mid-June. After holding talks with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick in Washington, Ryosei Akazawa told reporters that he believes "further progress" was made. They will also "continue coordinating energetically to achieve an agreement that benefits both Japan and the United States," Akazawa said. Akazawa, however, noted that no decision has been made on whether there will be another round of negotiations next week or beyond. He suggested it depends on the schedule of the U.S. Cabinet members who are due to hold high-level trade talks with China in London on Monday. Akazawa, Japan's minister for economic revitalization, and Bessent sat down for about 45 minutes to explore whether it may be feasible for the countries' leaders to reach a trade agreement when they are expected to meet in person in about 10 days. With Lutnick, whom Akazawa also met a day earlier for about two hours, the Japanese minister said he held separate talks of approximately similar length addressing three major areas -- trade, nontariff barriers and economic security. Akazawa declined to reveal details of the negotiations, including which issues had seen progress. However, Akazawa, as he has done consistently in the ongoing talks, said he had reiterated Tokyo's position that the Trump administration's additional tariffs must be removed as quickly as possible, as the measures are having a serious impact on the Japanese economy. Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba and U.S. President Donald Trump plan to hold a meeting around the time of the three-day Group of Seven summit in Canada, which starts on June 15. Akazawa, who arrived in the U.S. capital on Thursday for the third straight week and a fifth round of ministerial tariff talks, said the leaders will meet after hearing how far discussions have progressed. Under Trump's so-called reciprocal tariff regime, announced April 2, almost all countries in the world have been hit by a baseline duty of 10 percent, with Japan facing an additional country-specific tariff of 14 percent for a total rate of 24 percent. Along with other countries, Japan has also been affected by the Trump administration's extra 25 percent tariff on automobiles and other sector-based levies implemented on national security grounds. Japan has presented a package of proposals to the United States since the first round of their ministerial talks in mid-April. The package includes joint efforts to strengthen supply chains for semiconductors and critical minerals, cooperation in shipbuilding, expanding imports of U.S. farm products to Japan, and simplification of its safety and environmental requirements for foreign-made cars. Japan does not impose tariffs on imported cars, trucks or buses. The Trump administration has claimed, however, that American automakers' limited penetration into Japan's market is due to nontariff barriers, such as nonacceptance of certain U.S. standards.

AB De Villiers On SA's Chances To 'Upset' AUS In WTC Final: 'I Am Quietly...'
Last Updated: AB de Villiers is confident South Africa can upset Australia in the 2025 World Test Championship final, believing South Africa's in-form players can rise to the challenge. News18 Former South Africa star AB de Villiers is 'quietly confident' that the Proteas can 'upset' Australia in the 2025 World Test Championship final next week. de Villiers said Australia were 'clear' favorites for the summit clash, which begins on June 11 at Lord's, but backed his former team to cross the line. South Africa last won a men's ICC title in 1998. Australia, on the other hand, are the defending champions with the most number of ICC trophies in the last five years. Temba Bavuma and Co. have made it this far with eight wins from 12 Tests, while Pat Cummins' Aussies won 13 of the 19 games they played. 'This is a massive moment for South African cricket—a final at Lord's," de Villiers said on Star Sports. 'The entire nation will be behind our team, and hopefully, we can cross the line. I'm excited for the challenge. It's a well-balanced side, and I'm quietly confident we can upset Australia—I say 'upset' because they're clearly the favourites for this ICC World Test Championship Final." 'Australia are a very experienced, well-oiled machine of a team. It won't be easy for South Africa. But I'm quietly confident because we're going there with many in-form players and big-hearted guys who have something to prove on this stage. For many of these players, it'll be their first match at Lord's—hopefully, they'll settle quickly. But I'm really looking forward to this contest. It's going to be fantastic cricket—after all, it's a final, and both teams have earned their place here," he added. For the Aussies, a lot of eyes would be on Travis Head — a centurion and the player of the match in the 2023 final when they beat India to clinch the second edition of the Championship at the Oval. Head hit another century in the 2023 ODI World Cup final, too, taking up the image of a 'clutch' player. 'He's proven in multiple finals now—the World Test Championship Final and the 50-over World Cup Final—that he can rip the game away from the opposition in an instant," former ODI captain Aaron Finch told the broadcaster. 'As an opponent, these are the players you fear most. He can change a match faster than anyone," he added. Finch added that, though like South Africa, Australia's strength also lies in their bowling, the Kangaroos' bowling would be better prepared for the format. 'I believe the batting line-up will be extremely well-prepared. With several players not involved in the IPL, they've had the opportunity to focus specifically on their Test preparations. Consider Steve Smith entering the World Test Championship fresh, Marnus Labuschagne, and Cameron Green already acclimatized by playing cricket in England. Many of these players will arrive eager and ready to perform at their best," he said. First Published: June 06, 2025, 19:15 IST

India challenges US at WTO on auto tariffs
India has formally challenged the US on higher auto tariffs by raising the matter with the WTO , signalling a hardening of the South Asian nation's stance on trade talks even as the two countries race to clinch an interim deal before July. New Delhi informed the WTO that the 25% US tariffs on imports of passenger vehicles and light trucks, along with certain auto components are "safeguard measures" - trade restrictions - and affect its exporters, according to a notification. India has sought "consultation" with Washington on the tariffs. The move on auto tariffs comes amid the US doubling levies on steel and aluminium and coincides with the visit of a US trade team in New Delhi to advance the discussions. Separately, India has threatened retaliatory duties on some US goods in response to Washington's duties on steel and aluminium.
