The Abe faction, the largest faction of the Liberal Democratic Party, held a party in Tokyo on the evening of the 16th, the first since the death of former Prime Minister Abe last July. The party confirmed the unity as a faction while the absence of the chairman continues.
Prime Minister Kishida, who attended the meeting as a guest of honor, asked for cooperation, saying, "One year has almost passed, but I would like to pray once again for the repose of Mr. Abe, whom I admired"
