U.S.-Japan alliance is the “cornerstone” of Japan ’s diplomacy and security, Ishiba says.

Japan has a lot to worry about from a second Trump presidency, a visiting scholar says.

Trump 's threat of tariffs could have “devastating consequences” for a country already wrestling with rising costs and a “very low” currency, he says.

Many see Trump as a “ticking time bomb” in terms of security and the global economy.

The U.S. also “recognizes that Japan has really become an indispensable ally in the Indo-Pacific region ,” Boling said.

Still, Japan will adjust because the security environment is quite risky and they need the American security umbrella.
