Answer: Japan and the United States will be allies
Explanation:
The Treaty had the purpouse of opening up Japan to American commerce, ending the japanesse policy of isolation which it had managed to mantain for 220 years. It further encouraged peace and cooperation between the two nations in the future and though it achieved the short term objective of opening up Japan to foreign trade, the japaneese saw it as a weakness since they were forced to sign it to avoid military conflict. The subsequent treaties with the west had the effect of debilitating the already weak position of the Shogun, empowering the Emperor and leading to the rearmament and modernization of Japan.
