Japan’s Prime Minister Fumio Kishida called for a discussion of economic measures next month after ordering the ruling party to present an outline of gasoline and other fuel price relief measures by the end of August.
“This summer I have heard the voices of various people who have been suffering as a result of rising gasoline and other fuel prices,” Kishida told reporters Tuesday. “We’ll first thoroughly consider measures for that this month, and then thoroughly discuss overall economic measures next month.”
