TOKYO: Japanese Finance Minister TARO Aso Friday called for stepping up discussions on ways to ensure that low-income countries receive enough coronavirus vaccines.

The Group of Seven rich countries should consider ways to make enough vaccines available in low-income countries as major countries are racing to secure them, Aso said at a videoconference of the G7 finance ministers and central bank chiefs.

Aso also said countries need to consider economic policy while gauging the prospects for a recovery. He also said economic measures need to be taken in light of each country’s situation and structural issues.
