Without the U.S., it would lose the fundamental balance of benefits, Hagiuda said at a regular news conference. Trump formally took the U.S. out of the 12-nation tpp on monday.
hagiuda and trade minister Hiroshige Seko said Japan hadnt given up on persuading Trump to change his mind. We want to continue to explain to the U.S. about the strategic and economic merits of the TPP, Seko said. He said Abe spoke by phone with Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull on Monday and reaffirmed the significance of the TPP.

Gov. Mark Dayton collapsed during his State of the State address Monday evening in front of an assembled audience of lawmakers, state officials and Minnesotans.
The 69-year-old Dayton fainted 45 minutes into the speech before a joint session of the Legislature at the state Capitol in St. Paul. After spending several minutes on the ground in the House chamber, he walked into a back room with assistance. His staff later said that he returned home, was evaluated by medics and is planning to deliver his biennial budget on Tuesday.
The governor, who will turn 70 on Thursday, has had a series of health concerns during his two terms, including one prior fainting spell and hip and back surgeries.
On Jan. 31, 2016, Dayton spent a night in the hospital to be treated for dehydration after collapsing at a political event. Last year, the governor, who is occasionally unsteady on his feet, said he was aware that he had physical limitations but vowed to serve out his last term.
Although he has used a cane in public and has been out of the public eye during his back surgeries, Dayton has not had such a public collapse with the entire state watching before.
There were some early signs that the governor was not doing well Monday night. He stumbled as he walked up to the dais in the House chamber but quickly recovered and joked: I knew I should have shown up for the walk-through. During the speech, Dayton took several long pauses in his prepared remarks.
Shortly before the collapse, which happened about three-fourths of the way into the speech, Dayton paused again and drank from a bottleof water before falling onto the dais. Lt. Gov. Tina Smith and others seated on the dais rushed to help him.
There were audible gasps from the assembled audience of lawmakers and officials, many of whom appeared shaken in the aftermath.
The House sergeant-at-arms brought a first aid kit, which included oxygen, and many officials including lawmakers with emergency and medical expertise huddled around the prone governor.
After about five minutes, Dayton arose, with assistance, waved at the audience and went into a back room. Those in the House chamber applauded as Dayton rose.
He fell and he lost his footing. Some of us just tried to brace him, said Secretary of State Steve Simon, who was nearby. The good news is, at the end, you saw he went out, with some assistance, under his own power.

Dayton staffers said that the governor hit his head on the lectern as he collapsed, according to reports.
The governor slurred his words before he crumpled and, in a video of the speech, a thud can be heard, along with instructions from a calm voice to Get him to the ground. Get him to the ground, please.
House Speaker Kurt Daudt said the Democratic governor was up and about in the back room.
The governor is in our thoughts and prayers, said Daudt, R-Crown. I hope for a quick recovery.
When things like this happen were really all here just praying for the governor, said Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka, R-Nisswa. Were all one Minnesota in things like this. We care for each other. Thats our whole focus right now, period, is praying for our governor.
About a half-hour after Daytons collapse, his son Eric Dayton said on Twitter that his father was doing better and playing with Hugo, his grandson.
Im with my dad now and hes doing great, Eric Dayton said. Thank you all for your kind well-wishes and words of concern.
Longtime lawmaker Rep. Greg Davids, R-Preston, said he was shocked by the event.
I have been to 25 of these and Ive never seen anything like this before, said Davids. I hope all Minnesotans pray for our governor tonight.
The longest-serving member of the Legislature, DFL Rep. Lyndon Carlson of Crystal, said he had never before seen a governor have a serious health event during his 44 years at the Capitol.
The collapse came at a busy time for Dayton. He has spent weeks preparing for his seventh State of the State address and his biennial budget, which come in quick succession.
Dayton is scheduled to deliver his budget Tuesday, the deadline for delivering it, according to state law. The law is silent on whether he has to deliver it in person.
Davids, the chair of the House Taxes Committee, said he expected that lawmakers would be flexible on the deadline.

I would hope that we would give him some extra time, Davids said, noting that the final decision would not be up to him. I know theres some deadlines, but we have to be concerned about the governors health at this point.
About an hour after daytons collapse, the governors chief of staff, Jaime Tincher, said the governor walked out of the Capitol and went to the Governors Residence in St. Paul. Emergency medical technicians joined the governor at his home and performed a routine check, she said.
He is now spending time with his son and grandson, she said shortly before 9 p.m.
Tincher said that Dayton plans to deliver his budget Tuesday, despite the collapse.
The governor will present his 2017 budget tomorrow at 11:15 a.m., as planned, she said. Gov. Dayton and his entire staff thank the people of Minnesota for their outpouring of support and concern.
After Dayton collapsed, lawmakers quickly adjourned the joint session of the Legislature.
Daytons collapse came before he reached the part of his speech where he was going to propose a public option for Minnesotas individual health insurance market. Republican lawmakers, who dont support such a proposal, said they would refrain from criticizing Daytons proposals Monday night.
Trump Kills TPP - Stop Funding of Abortion + Sterilization Overseas - Federal Hiring Freeze
Federal worker Greg Guthrie had held out hope after Donald Trump"s election to president that his professed advocacy for the American worker would extend to the federal workforce, too.
That hope diminished after Trump on Monday issued an executive order implementing a hiring freeze across the federal government, with exceptions only for military, national security or public safety personnel.
So while Guthrie wasn"t shocked to learn Trump had imposed the hiring freeze, he was disappointed.
"I guess there"s a presumption that a lot of people in government are not needed," Guthrie, an information specialist with the Department of Commerce"s National Technical Information Service in Alexandria, said in a phone interview. "But we"re pretty lean right now, anyway. Now to say that there will be no new, young workers that"s pretty draconian."
Trump had raised the possibility of a hiring freeze during the campaign. At a news conference Monday, Trump spokesman Sean Spicer said the freeze ensures taxpayers get effective and efficient government and said it "counters the dramatic expansion of the federal workforce in recent years."
Statistics from the Office of Personnel Management, though, show that the number of executive branch employees hasn"t been this low since 1965, and that the number of employees has stayed more or less steady in the last 15 years.
Guthrie, who is also union officer with the National Federation of Federal Employees, said he didn"t understand how Trump could conclude that a hiring freeze was a good idea even before his Cabinet nominees have been approved.
"As a federal worker, it"s kind of deflating to be felt like you"re unnecessary," he said.
"freezing federal hiring sounds good on the campaign trail, but it does not make government smaller like some people think it does," he said. "All it does is lead to the hiring of more federal contractors which tend to cost taxpayers more than federal employees and are less accountable."
The full effect of a hiring freeze is unclear. According to OPM, the federal government hired 221,000 workers in fiscal 2015, the most recent year for which data is available.
The number excludes uniformed military personnel. But roughly a third of those hired were military veterans, who enjoy hiring preferences in the federal government.
Erwin also pointed out that the Department of Veterans Affairs currently has 2,000 vacancies and said "it is the American veteran that is going to suffer" because the agency is now barred from filling those vacancies.
Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Virginia, whose district includes many federal workers, said Monday that the government actually needs to increase its capacity to handle certain issues, like cybersecurity.
"This Executive Order ... will have a depressing effect on our ability to recruit and retain the next generation of federal workers," he said. "This is a far cry from President Kennedy"s effort to inspire a new generation to enter public service."
Republican Barbra Comstock, who also represents parts of northern Virginia in Congress, announced her own opposition to the hiring freeze and said "past hiring freezes in both Republican and Democrat administrations have cost the federal government money in the long run."
