Trump phones Japan's leader

Call comes after the new prime minister infuriated China with remark about Taiwan.

- MARI YAMAGUCHI

Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, who recently triggered China’s fury with a comment suggesting a Chinese move against Taiwan could prompt a Japanese military response, said Tuesday that she received a call from President Trump right after he spoke with China’s leader.

Takaichi, a hard-line conservative, said Trump expressed his friendship to her in a call he made to her Tuesday after a phone conversation with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.

“President Trump told me that he and I are extremely good friends and that I should call him any time,” Takaichi said in brief remarks to reporters at the prime minister’s office in Tokyo. Takaichi, however, did not say whether they discussed her Taiwan comment.

The White House on Tuesday confirmed the phone call but provided no detail.
