The EU-Japan Business Round Table submits its 2022 Recommendations to PM Kishida of Japan

 

On 17 January 2023, Masaki Sakuyama (former BRT Chair, Japan-side and former Senior Advisor to Mitsubishi Electric Corporation) and Nikolaus Boltze (BRT Member, representing Philippe Wahl, BRT Chair, EU-side) submitted the BRT's 2022 Recommendations to Prime Minister Kishida.

An important part of the BRT’s work is its interaction with the Japanese and EU Authorities. This interaction takes various forms including discussions during the annual meeting, the Joint Recommendations and Working Party Recommendations to the EU and Japanese Authorities and exchanges outside the annual meeting. Mr Sakuyama and Mr Boltze formally delivered the BRT’s 2022 Recommendations to the Government of Japan during a Courtesy Call to PM Kishida.
During the brief meeting, Mr Sakuyama explained that the 2022 annual meeting addressed digital and green issues. He welcomed the creation of the Japan-EU Digital Partnership and hoped that the Japanese and EU Authorities would continue to work with the business community to promote policies based on the EPA. Mr Boltze explained that the BRT discussed ways to strengthen cooperation on digitalisation, on climate change and green transformation, as well as resilient supply chains.

Responding, PM Kishida expressed his appreciation for the BRT’s support and recommendations, and hoped to continue to work closely with the EU and Japanese business communities to further develop EU-Japan cooperation.
Also present: Jean-Eric Paquet (Ambassador of the EU to Japan), Hiroyuki Namazu (Director-General, Economic Affairs Bureau, MOFA), Kyoko Kashiwabara (Director-General, Multilateral Trade System Department, Trade Policy Bureau, METI), Manuel Hubert and Yasuo Tanabe (EU-Japan Centre’s Managing Directors), and Katsuya Furuta (Executive Officer and CMO of Mitsubishi Electric).
The BRT’s 2022 Recommendations will also be submitted to the EU Authorities.
The Courtesy Call was reported on the official website and twitter feed of the Prime Minister's Office of Japan, and on the websites of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan and the EU Delegation to Japan.
