Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi clarified her recent comments on the depreciation of the yen, emphasizing the need for an economic system resilient to exchange rate fluctuations. According to Jin10, Takaichi stated on her social media platform X that she did not imply that a strong yen is beneficial or a weak yen is detrimental. Instead, she advocated for building a robust economic structure capable of withstanding currency volatility.Takaichi's clarification followed her remarks made on Saturday in Kanagawa Prefecture while campaigning for Liberal Democratic Party candidate Taishiro Yamaji. During the event, she mentioned that although the depreciation of the yen is often viewed negatively, it presents a significant opportunity for the export sector. She further noted that the weaker yen provides a buffer for the automotive industry against U.S. tariffs, offering substantial assistance.
