【Japan refuses US request to ban import of Russian liquefied natural gas, Takayuki Nakagawa requests Trump's "understanding"] Superficial friendliness cannot conceal deep differences. Japanese new Prime Minister Takayuki Nakagawa said during a meeting with visiting Trump in Tokyo that it would be very difficult to ban the import of Russian liquefied natural gas. Nakagawa requested Trump to understand Japan's energy needs.

Currently, Russia's supply accounts for about 9% of Japan's total liquefied natural gas imports, and Japan's Mitsui and Mitsubishi companies hold shares in the "Sakhalin-2" project in the Russian Far East.
