Japan official: risks from strong yen rising
A senior government official said on Monday the risks posed by a strong yen to Japan's economic recovery are increasing, after data showed growth in gross domestic product slowed sharply in the April-June second quarter.
Keisuke Tsumura, a parliamentary secretary at the Cabinet Office, also told reporters that the government stands by its view that the economy is recovering slowly.
