Japan will join forces with other members of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in its upcoming trade ministers' meeting to pressure the United States to help strengthen global regulations to prevent the abuse of antidumping measures, trade chief Takashi Fukaya said Tuesday.
At a regular press conference, Fukaya restated that he is determined to seek an early launch of the new round of trade liberalization negotiations under the World Trade Organization.
He added that he hopes to strengthen antidumping rules at the new WTO round through efforts at the APEC trade ministers' meeting to be held in Darwin, Australia, on June 6 and 7.
