The Market Oriented Sector Selective talks (MOSS) were held between the United States and Japan in 1984. Topic were trade frictions on four product areas: forest products, telecommunications equipment and services, electronics, and pharmaceuticals and medical equipment. The talks were aimed at routing out all overt and informal barriers to imports in these areas, especially on the Japanese side. The negotiations lasted throughout 1985 and achieved modest success.
