Movements are continuing in various countries to commemorate former Prime Minister Abe, who died after being shot by a gun during his speech.

President Biden of the United States has instructed to raise the half-mast in the building of the government agency until sunset on the 10th, and in response to this, the half-mast is raised in the White House and so on.



Then, seven years ago (2015), in Varanasi in northern India, where former Prime Minister Abe visited, citizens gathered with a ghost on the Ganges River, which is considered to be a sacred river.

People prayed with candles and mourned a small pottery plate with flowers floating on the Ganges.

"His death is a big blow to India," said one of the citizens.



In Australia, on the night of the 9th, the bell tower of the capital Canberra and the city hall of southern Adelaide were lit up in red and white in the image of the Japanese flag.
