Search every verified Haruhiko Kuroda interview, podcast appearance, and on-the-record quote — each transcript cross-checked by AI and human review to confirm speaker identity. Former Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda appeared on a YouTube program on May 15, 2026, where he discussed the current economic situation and the weak yen. Kuroda stated that the economy is "growing steadily, with inflation at 2.3% and unemployment below 2%, achieving full employment," and argued that calling for a high-pressure economy with increased fiscal spending would be "excessive and lead to inflation." He also addressed the weak yen, saying that resolving it requires "attracting foreign companies and investors to invest domestically through specific industrial support and science and technology initiatives," rather than relying on short-term subsidies or tax breaks, which he said would "only fuel inflation in the long run." During the program, Kuroda expressed expectations for politician Mitsunari Okamoto, whom he described as a moderate. He noted that Okamoto had previously asked him questions in parliamentary financial committee meetings and had made policy proposals, and Kuroda said he welcomed the opportunity to appear on the program at Okamoto's invitation. Kuroda also commented on current Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda, describing him as "very solid" but noting that he is a university professor, and expressed hope that Ueda would consider certain perspectives in his policy approach.
