U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said in a tweet that he had met with his Japanese counterpart, Finance Minister Taro Aso, and discussed “the ongoing close cooperation between the U.S. and Japan across a number of economic and security issues.” “With prospects for the resumption of China-U.S. talks unclear, there’s a risk that if this is not resolved trust in world markets will be damaged,” Aso said Saturday.

As is typical of pre-summit gatherings, the G-20 officials were haggling over the wording of a communique to be issued as meetings wrap up Sunday. The communique will be incorporated into proposals to be endorsed by the top leaders in Osaka. Much attention at G-20 meetings this year is focusing on how to adapt tax systems and regulation of increasingly digital economies.
