STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENT
This important agreement on interconnection rates will help further reduce
regulatory barriers to trade between the United States and Japan. It will
level the playing field for America?s cutting edge technologies and
increase the number of Japanese consumers connected to the Internet. It's
a win-win for the United States and Japan and represents an important step
as we prepare to discuss the impact of information technology on the global
economy at the G7/G8 Summit.
