Japan's finance minister on Tuesday signalled Tokyo's willingness to support Jim Yong Kim, the US nominee for the next World Bank chief, a report said.
"I think it is quite possible to consider (supporting Kim) if the United States requests us to recommend him," Finance Minister Jun Azumi said, according to Kyodo News.
Azumi, however, added that Tokyo had not made a final decision on the matter.
