Trump meets with Japanese leader Takaichi, with Iran conflict a central topic

Donald Trump met with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi at the White House. The meeting focused heavily on the conflict with Iran, with Trump praising Japan's 'tremendous support' and reportedly seeking more help, which put Takaichi in an uneasy position.

Some reports suggest Trump may be trying to push Japan to get more involved in the Iran situation, testing their close relationship. Takaichi faced domestic criticism for what was seen as a flattering attitude toward Trump during the summit.
