“Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe described Donald Trump as a ‘trustworthy leader’ after meeting the U.S. president-elect on Thursday to get clarity on statements Trump had made while campaigning that had caused concern about the alliance. Abe, speaking after the hastily arranged 90-minute meeting at Trump Tower in Manhattan, reporters: ‘The talks made me feel sure that we can build a relationship of trust.’ But he would not disclose specifics because the conversation was unofficial.”
