Key Highlights:
‘Asked about Japan’s public finances, Abe said Japan needs to fully escape deflation in order to achieve fiscal consolidation.
Abe also addressed a surprise offer from Russian President Vladimir Putin to conclude a peace treaty between the two countries by the end of the year, which Japan rejected earlier this month.”
