Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi meets US President Donald Trump in New York on Tuesday. But the meeting's biggest influence will be absent: Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Trump will meet Xi in Washington on Thursday, just two days later. It will be Xi's first state visit to the US in over 10 years.
Takaichi's meeting takes place on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly. She faces an unpredictable American president who wants concrete results.
