VOA: Japan Expresses 'Serious Concern' Over US Spying Reports
Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has expressed his "serious concern" over allegations the United States spied on senior Japanese government and business officials.
Prime Minister Abe also called for an investigation into the matter during a phone call with U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, according to Japan's top government spokesman, Yoshihide Suga.
"If it is true these Japanese individuals were targeted, it could shake the relationship of trust in our alliance and I would have to express serious concerns," Suga quoted Abe as telling Biden.
WNU Editor: I suspect that the Japanese already knew that the U.S. was spying .... Wikileaks only made it public.
