Summary President Trump's longstanding skepticism toward US alliances and the coming negotiations over Japanese support for American troops in Japan could strain the relationship. Despite the challenges ahead, Americans remain supportive of the US military presence in Japan and say the US-Japan relationship strengthens US security. Key findings: A majority of Americans (57%) say the United States should maintain or increase its military forces in Japan. Americans' rating of Japan's global influence has risen slightly over the past year to an average of 5.9 out of ten, up from 5.7 in 2018. Eight in ten Americans (78%) say the US relationship with Japan strengthens US national security. While a majority of Americans continue to oppose using US troops in a conflict between China and Japan over disputed islands (55%), support has risen steadily in recent years and is now at an all-time high (43%)
