Japanese prime minister, Shinzo Abe, speaks in parliament

  • Trusts Kuroda to run monetary policy
  • Without strong monetary policy, Japan wouldn't escape deflation
  • Has faith in Kuroda's skills with regards to monetary policy handling

Well, calling it out to be a success may be a stretch at this point. The fact that monetary policy has needed to be taken to such levels is a good gauge of the situation in Japan over the past two decades.
