Japan’s trade surplus with the United States fell 17.3 percent year-on-year to JPY 340.7 billion – the lowest level since January 2013, according to Reuters News.
Japan’s exports to the United States rose 5.8 percent year-on-year in May and imports jumped 19.9 percent year-on-year.
Despite Japan’s falling trade surplus with the US, the Trump administration is unlikely to tone down criticism of Japanese trade policies.
