ISTANBUL

Japanese Premier Shigeru Ishiba said on Saturday that no "common ground" has been reached with the US regarding tariffs.

Ishiba expressed dissatisfaction with the 25% tariff on some auto parts that went into effect the same day, according to the Kyodo News.

Ryosei Akazawa, Japan's top trade negotiator and economic revitalization minister, negotiated tariffs with Washington on Thursday, but there was no clear outcome.

"Japan will continue to ask for US tariff measures to be reconsidered," Ishiba told reporters after meeting Akazawa, adding that Washington and Tokyo are yet to "reach common ground."

Ishiba underscored that Tokyo's negotiations with Washington are on "all" US tariffs, including those on auto, steel, and aluminum.

The Trump administration imposed 24% tariffs on Japanese imports as part of reciprocal tariffs on imports from all countries but granted a 90-day reprieve to all affected nations, except China.
