The eurozone is struggling with the economic slowdown ahead of BREXIT. Nevertheless, EUR manages to sustain bullish momentum over JPY.

On the other hand, today Japan's Monetary Policy Meeting Minutes were posted where Bank of Japan's policymakers disagreed on the pace of central bank's monetary stimulus program as escalating external risk is affecting Japan's economic recovery.
