Japan is Chair of G20 at the June summit.
They'll be doing the gracious host thing and not offering unsolicited advice (indeed …. unsolicited advice givers are sooooo boring).
Vice Minister of Finance for International Affairs at Japan's Ministry of Finance Masatsugu Asakawa:
- Japan, as chair of G20, won't intervene to seek solution to US-China trade frictions at finance leaders' gathering in Fukuoka
- Won't include in G20 finance leaders' communique language saying members will fight protectionism
