Hatoyama snubs press amid gov't financing woes

TOKYO, Japan - Japanese Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama joins his hands, apparently in a gesture of apology, before wrapping up a press interview with some questions left unanswered at the premier's office in Tokyo on Dec. 9, 2009. Hatoyama's government appears to be backing away from its goal of keeping new bond issuance below 44 trillion yen in fiscal 2010.
