TOKYO: The Treasury Department stated that US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen will meet with her Japanese counterpart Shunichi Suzuki on the sidelines of the Group of 20 finance leaders’ summit in Washington.

The meeting is scheduled for later this week. Following a severe depreciation in the yen, authorities in both nations agreed late last month to interact closely on currency concerns.
