In preparation for the upcoming G7 Hiroshima Summit in May, young members of the Metropolitan Police Department's riot police conducted joint training in Koto Ward, Tokyo.
In the future, the Metropolitan Police Department is expected to dispatch riot police to the site, and security for the summit will be in full swing.
About 400 young members of the Metropolitan Police Department's riot police who joined the unit last month participated in the joint training held in Yumenoshima, Koto Ward.

At the G7 Hiroshima Summit, which is approaching two months later, in addition to countermeasures against terrorists, how to prevent a lone wolf-type incident called a "loan offender" in light of the incident in which former Prime Minister Abe was shot during an election speech. is an issue.
In the future, the Metropolitan Police Department is expected to dispatch riot police officers to the site, and security for the summit will be in full swing.
Kohei Chiyonobe, Director of the Security Department of the Metropolitan Police Department, said, "I want Mr. Ken to work hard with the awareness that 'we are the leading role in security.'"
