THE JAPANESE government is seeking a major reduction in the financial support it provides for United States forces stationed in the country, while Washington reportedly wants Tokyo to ramp up its contribution. Comments:
Japan's financial burden is expected to increase under its recently-enacted security legislation; unless the host-nation support is decreased to make up for this, it will be difficult to get public backing.
