The European Union and Japan signed a huge free trade deal on Tuesday that cuts or eliminates tariffs on nearly all goods.
The agreement covers 600 million people and a third of the global economy. It's also a major endorsement of a global trading system that is under increasing threat from American protectionism.
>The deal eliminates about 99 percent of the tariffs on Japanese goods sold to the EU. About 94 percent of the tariffs on European exports to Japan will be lifted, rising to 99 percent in the future. The difference reflects exceptions on such products as rice, which enjoys strong political protection from imports in Japan. bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-07-17/japan-eu-to-sign-widespread-trade-eliminating-tariffs
What? Most of the developed world is protectionist as fuck.

>Most of Japan drinks soymilk
it's false. Most of Japan drink normal milk. adult female prefer to drink soymilk for beauty reason.
Adam Hernandez
So that is why all the soy? But the good milk makes their boobies grow, not soymilk. I fail to see how it helps their beauty then.

Instead of UK made Nissans Euros can buy Japan made Nissans. More Japanese jerbs, so I guess so. For Euros I'm guessing its mainly food.

You don't need milk to do that though.

Soy isoflavone is structurally so close to female hormone (estrogen) that it can work to help women have beautiful skin and hair, and a curvy body with bigger tits. It also strengthens bones and makes their periods less torturing. Probably even more benefits.
For men, isoflavone lowers the risk of prostate cancer, life-shortening bad obesity and osteoporosis. You'll have more hair left when you are older too.

Isn't most of Japan lactose intolerant?
Mason Harris
