TOKYO -- US President Barack Obama telephoned Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso and confirmed their shared desire to work together on economic issues, the Japanese Foreign Ministry said Thursday.

Obama and Aso agreed to cooperate in tackling the deepening global recession and other key issues during the 10-minute conversation Thursday morning, the ministry said in a statement.

The two leaders also agreed to strengthen their partnership in their fight against terrorism, climate change, African development and the reinforcement of the Japan-US alliance, the ministry said.

The conversation -- conducted in English, without an interpretor -- provided a temporary respite for Aso, who is to face harsh questions from opposition leaders at parliament later Thursday over his economic measures and other key policies.
