[SOCIAL WIRE] World Leaders Send Well Wishes as Shinzo Abe Health Forces PM to Step Down
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe had struggled with exhaustion for weeks as Japanese media speculated about his frequent hospital visits. And then it was revealed a recurring medical condition had become a problem. Abe called a press conference on the afternoon of 28 August and said he will resign as prime minister. On Twitter, we took a look at how some world leaders reacted.
Donald, thank you for honoring me with your kind words. Since I first met you at Trump Tower in New York four years ago, we have developed a deep relationship of trust and had so many bilateral meetings and phone calls. https://t.co/3qguCfOWYr
