This part is hilariously stupid because there isn't a block of those exports. It's a block on genetically modified foods. These countries have a lot of common sense policies concerning the sale of GMOs because they do not want to get stuck in the monoculture death spiral that the US agricultural sector is stuck in.
This is another stupid one. The Japanese don't like idiotically massive cars. Which is 90% of what American carmakers sell.
I lived in Japan for several years and wholeheartedly second this. I had a later model Nissan Skyline that was roughly the size of a Camry and that thing was too big for the cities.
I love how GMO foods pose one of the greatest dangers to our species' continued well-being and survival, but not in way because of the genetic modification, but because of the ability for corporations to patent life itself and control who gets to grow it or not.
Meanwhile, you ask most average grocery shoppers if they would eat GMO vegetables and they will shriek in horror like it's going to make them grow dicks out of their elbows.
