Tokyo: Japan "regrets" new US tariffs, the government said Friday, after Tokyo was included on Washington's list of trading partners hit with levies ranging from 10 to 12.5 percent.

"Japan's industry and trade are conducted in accordance with international rules. Japan regrets that this latest measure imposes tariffs on Japan solely on the grounds that there is no ban on the import of products produced through forced labour," chief government spokesman Minoru Kihara said.
