The meeting between U.S. and Japanese leaders was awkward: Trump compared the action against Iran to Pearl Harbor and also said no one understands "surprise attacks" better than Japan.

U.S. President Trump met with visiting Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takashi at the White House on the 19th. During a joint press conference, Trump defended the U.S. launching a large-scale military operation against Iran, comparing the U.S. attack on Iran to Japan’s surprise attack on Pearl Harbor during World War II, and also claimed that Japan understands “surprise attacks” best, causing an awkward moment on the spot.
