"U.S. President George W. Bush told Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi on Friday that the United States supports a strong dollar, a senior U.S. official said. "The president once again noted that U.S. policy is to support a strong dollar," the official told reporters at a White House briefing on the meeting between the two leaders. A Japanese government official said Koizumi told Bush a strong dollar was "in the interests of both our economies". The official said Bush made his remarks after Koizumi raised the issue of the yen's recent strengthening against the dollar. "
