abe said the alliance cannot function unless there is mutual trust. think he really did get a sense that at least, you know, verbally, there would be a commitment they are from the west side and i think that means that perhaps, donald trump will be a little bit more constructive towards foreign policy then he sounded during the campaign period, which i think will settle a lot of nerves throughout the world, but certainly in japan, and we saw investors looking for little bit, sounding a little bit more bullish after the meeting. yousef: all right, thank you very much. and that is bloomberg's brian fowler, joining us from tokyo. staying with the pan and after putting the bank of japan's mega-stimulus on a more sustainable footing, governor haruhiko kuroda has worked to do, according to watchers of the central bank who says 2017 could be the year of the taper. the boj's bond buying plan runs up against operational limits. it let us get a deeper discussion of the challenges the boj is going to be facing from tokyo with the chief economist of japan. thank

>> i think abe is quite concerned, and it's not a coincidence that he came right over here.t he heard during the campaign was probably alarming to him and to the people in this country that donald trump thought that they should acquire nuclear weapons just to make sure that they remain safe. and i think that's not a popular point of view, and i think he wanted to hear whether donald trump was backing away from that, as other people have said that he was. and so i think it's a very important meeting for him to have face to face. when trump said he would meet with him, of course he jumped at the opportunity. >> we're standing by to get a statement from the prime minister and the president-elect. we'll have that as soon as it comes in. manu, nancy pelosi all of a sudden getting her first challenger to be the democratic leader, congressman tim ryan announcing his candidacy today. how worried should she be? >> she is the heavy favorite to be re-elected. but there is a lot of anxiety in the ranks. a lot of democrats are not sure there is a clear path forward, including some of pel
