U.S. President Donald Trump says Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is his “biggest fan” among world leaders. Speaking at a press conference after the Group of Seven (G7) summit ends in the French spa town of Evian-les-Bains, Trump said Japan is “doing very well.” He added that Takaichi believes he “did a great job,” and suggested others should “call her and ask her.”
Trump’s remarks come in response to a question about whether he had contacted other G7 members, including Britain and Germany, as well as Japan. Across the reports, the consistent point is Trump’s praise of Takaichi’s view of him, framed as her support or admiration among world leaders. None of the provided summaries detail any formal outcome or policy decision tied to the comment, but they place the statement in the context of Trump’s assessment of Japan’s performance during the period surrounding the G7 meeting.
