Softbank CEO: Putin asked for investment www.nhk.or.jp
The head of Japanese telecom operator Softbank Group says he was asked by Russian President Vladimir Putin to invest heavily in his country.
Softbank Group Chairman and CEO Masayoshi Son chatted with President Putin during a meeting of business delegations from Japan and Russia in Tokyo on Friday. The business dialogue coincided with the summit between Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and President Putin.
Son later told reporters that he is planning to talk over the phone with Donald Trump and that Putin asked him to give his regards to the US president-elect.
Son said when he told Putin of his company's plan to invest in the United States, the president asked for massive investment in Russia as well.
Son said he is now planning to visit Russia around May of next year as President Putin wanted him to come.
He said his company would like to proceed with investment and joint projects with Russia in artificial intelligence and other new technology.
Son said he hopes the latest summit will help deepen relations between the 2 countries.
Son met Donald Trump earlier this month and promised to invest 50 billion dollars in the US.
