Former Prime Minister Abe's "state funeral" will be held on the 27th.

Prior to this, Prime Minister Kishida will face "condolence diplomacy" with the leaders of each country who will attend from the 26th.

Former Prime Minister Abe's state funeral will be held on the 27th at the Nippon Budokan in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo.



Approximately 4,300 people from Japan and abroad are expected to attend, of which about 700 are foreign government officials and ambassadors stationed in Japan.



Prime Minister Kishida will face "condolence diplomacy" at the guest house in Minato-ku, Tokyo from the afternoon of the 26th to the 28th, the day after the "national funeral", and will meet individually with the incumbent leaders.



On the 26th, I will hold talks with Vice President Harris of the United States and President Phuc of Vietnam.



On the 27th, the day of the state funeral, he will meet with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Australian Prime Minister Alba Neji, and on the 28th, he will meet with South Korean Prime Minister Han Duk-soo and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen. I am planning to meet with more than 30 people in 3 days.



On the other hand, Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau, who was the only incumbent leader of the G7 = seven major countries to attend, announced that he would not attend due to disaster response.



Through the series of meetings, Prime Minister Kishida said, "I would like to convey my intention to inherit and develop Mr. Abe's diplomatic legacy both domestically and internationally."
