		<description><![CDATA[I was interviewed twice today on President Obama&#8217;s visit to Japan.
The first was for Colombia National Radio&#8217;s morning &#8220;Coffee and News&#8221; show. We spoke about the Okinawa base relocation issue, creating a more equal U.S.-Japan relationship, and Prime Minister Hatoyama&#8217;s idea for an East Asian Community. See more here.
The second was for Correio Braziliense, one of Brazil&#8217;s main politics-oriented newspapers. I&#8217;ll post a link when I have one.
