US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent criticizes Sen. Warren over yen intervention confusion, leaves key details undisclosed.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent sharply criticized Senator Elizabeth Warren for misunderstanding the US intervention to support the Japanese yen, clarifying that Japan owes no money to the Treasury. Warren had questioned the Treasury's sale of euros to buy yen after the yen hit a 40-year low, but Bessent defended the move as necessary to stabilize markets and protect US economic interests. Despite his strong rebuttal, Bessent did not disclose key details such as the amount of yen purchased or the current value of the position. This intervention was the first coordinated US-Japan effort to strengthen the yen since 1998, with Japan spending a record amount to support its currency. The exchange highlights tensions between Treasury officials and lawmakers over transparency and economic strategy.
