China is not a party to the TPP, but Japan is, and many congressional critics cite it as the target of their insistence that provisions to prevent currency manipulation be included in the deal. The yen has depreciated sharply over the last year, and some US economic interests, particularly the auto industry, accuse Japan of manipulation to keep the currency undervalued.
中国不是TPP参与国，但日本是，许多国会批评者以日本为目标作为坚持将防止货币操纵条款纳入协议的理由。去年，日元大幅贬值，一些美国经济利益集团，特别是汽车业，指责日本操纵货币保持日元低估。但日本银行上一次干预外汇市场要追溯到2011年。2013N年，日本与其他G-7国家一起同意了美国财政部提出的不干预晚会的动议。
