【上智大・前嶋和弘氏】日米首脳会談“和やかムード”の裏に攻防「あの瞬間…」高市＆トランプ両首脳の発言読み解き！　イラン・石油・自衛隊…デリケートな状況下「練りに練った言葉」も（2026年3月20日）

The Japan-U.S. summit meeting began in the early hours of the 20th, Japan time. Regarding the situation in the Middle East, Prime Minister Takaichi appealed to President Trump at the outset, saying, "We want to work with other countries to offer our support." The Strait of Hormuz remains effectively blockaded. While President Trump appreciated Japan's efforts to ensure the safety of ships traversing the strait, he also called for a strengthening of Japan's role. Following the meeting, Prime Minister Takaichi attended a dinner hosted by the President. This was only the second time a dinner had been held after a summit meeting under the second Trump administration (the first being with Saudi Arabia), demonstrating the warm hospitality shown to Japan, a strong ally.
