Nissan, Renault and Mitsubishi executives reaffirmed importance of alliance: Mitsubishi chief

TOKYO (Reuters) - The chief executives of Japan's Nissan and Mitsubishi Motors met with the newly appointed chairman of Renault in Tokyo on Thursday and reaffirmed the importance of their three-way alliance, Mitsubishi CEO Osamu Masuko said.

Masuko made the comments to reporters after what he said was a nearly two-hour meeting at a Tokyo hotel.

Separately, Nissan Motor CEO Hiroto Saikawa told reporters that the issue of a merger between Nissan and Renault did not come up, nor did the issue of Nissan's chairmanship.
