Japan Fujii: US Geithner Wants Stronger Dollar



TOKYO -(Dow Jones)- U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has expressed his continued desire for a stronger dollar, Japanese Finance Minister Hirohisa Fujii said Tuesday.

"Mr. Geithner has long been saying he wants to strengthen the dollar, and that point was reaffirmed today," Fujii told reporters.

Fujii was speaking after he held a one-on-one meeting with Geithner, who is visiting Japan for the first time since assuming his current post in January.
