Japanese Economy Minister Akira Amari said on Friday each nation’s interests clashed over an intellectual property issue and they could not reach a Pacific Rim trade deal.
He also said trade ministers from the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade talks share a view that they will continue to make efforts toward an early agreement.
Amari made the comment at a separate news conference after the ministers failed to reach a TPP deal in Hawaii.
