President, the Japanese government is right here.

And it was just because the large group, and perhaps we didn't have the opportunity.

This is perhaps the last opportunity in full bloom.

We had one just yesterday, two days ago.

They don't believe it will work.

Well, no, not particularly.

They feel it's a pretty broken relation.

It's mainly a stand-up in here to greet you and a courtesy call.

And we can go then for just a small walk in the garden with them, the Japanese.

And then Mike Farrell will give them a tour of the White House.

Don't have any press.

No.

All right, fine.

We'll have a free decision down at the garden.

General Spokane will come in and set up your history.

All right.

Thank you.
