TOKYO (Reuters) – Japanese Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki said on Friday that the government would stick to its aim of balancing the primary budget by the fiscal year end in March 2026 and it’s too early to refer to other measures as additional fiscal targets.
Japan will strive to continue efforts to restore its tattered public finances so as to achieve the budget balancing while trying to bring down debt-to-GDP ratio in a stable manner, Suzuki told reporters after a cabinet meeting.
