Tokyo, Oct 16 (UNI/Sputnik) Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida told the Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper that he wants to visit the United States until the end of the year and meet President Joe Biden.
"I would like to visit the United States and meet Biden soon. I will make efforts to do that soon, maybe even until the end of the year," Kishida said.
Fumio Kishida became the 100th prime minister of Japan last Monday after his predecessor, Yoshihide Suga, refused to re-run for the head of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party.
