Excerpt from Report on Medical Equipment and Pharmaceuticals Market-Oriented, Sector-Selective (Moss) Discussions: By the U. S. And Japan Moss Negotiating Teams to the Minister for Foreign Affairs Abe Secretary of State Shultz On January 2, 1985, President Reagan and Prime Minister Nakasone met in Los Angeles to discuss, among other issues, bilateral economic issues. The moss talks resulted from that meeting. On January 28 and 29, 1985, high - level officials from Japan and the United States met in Tokyo to launch the process agreed to by the President and the Prime Minister. The United States presented an approach that was market-oriented and sector - selective, with the acronym moss. The market-oriented aspect of this approach meant focusing on removing barriers that limit market access. The sector - selective aspect meant undertaking this barrier - removal within specific industrial sectors telecommunications, medical equipment and pharmaceuticals, electronics, and forest products discussed by the President and the Prime Minister. The Japanese side indicated that it was willing to follow this moss approach. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
