TOKYO, Feb 10 (Reuters) - Japanese Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki said on Friday that pulling the economy out of deflation and achieving stable growth remain an important policy challenge. Suzuki made the comment in parliament, when asked whether the government would seek to revise the current joint statement with the Bank of Japan (BOJ) that commits the central bank to achieving its 2% inflation target at the earliest date possible.
