Japan Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba is meeting US President Donald Trump at the White House on Friday, as the Japanese leader hopes to cement ties with his country's primary foreign partner.
US and Japanese officials said economic and security concerns particularly North Korea will be high on the agenda, along with advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence.
Mr. Ishiba and Japanese officials said the main purpose of the visit, however, is to forge personal ties with Trump who had a warm relationship with former PM Shinzo Abe during his first term.
The visit marks the first by an Asian leader to the White House since Trump's second administration began in January.
