Experts say Democratic U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's victory in New York's primary Tuesday is good news for Japan. The former secretary of state is likely to inherit President Barack Obama's foreign policy outlook should she be elected as the first female president of the United States.
Clinton's dominating double-digit win in New York, which she once represented in the U.S. Senate, snapped Democratic rival Bernie Sanders' winning streak and made it nearly impossible for him to overtake her delegate lead.
Both Clinton and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump scored sweeping victories in the state and immediately cited them in arguing that they are all but unstoppable as their parties' presidential nominees.
