Trump Holds 2-day Summit with Japanese PM Abe

U.S. President Donald Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe begin two days of talks Friday that provide both leaders with opportunities to reinforce a long-established security treaty and bolster their economic relationship.

Trump and Abe will hold talks in the Oval Office Friday morning followed by a midday news conference. The two leaders will then fly to Palm Beach, Florida for a weekend stay at Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate.

It will be the most time Trump will have spent with a foreign leader since he became president on January 20. It will be Trump's second face-to-face meeting with a key ally after hosting British Prime Minister Theresa May two weeks ago.
