BEIJING, July 2 (Reuters) - China's imports and exports in June fell from year-ago levels, but a senior Ministry of Commerce official said on Thursday the decline was less than in previous months.
In April and May, exports and imports both fell more than 20 percent from year-earlier levels.
Chen Jian, a vice-commerce minister, made the comments at a briefing to reporters. He did not provide actual import or export levels for June. (Reporting by Zhou Xin and Kirby Chien; editing by Ken Wills)
