“This is a shocking and terrible tragedy, and a great unifier has been lost. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was a devoted public servant, earning the deep respect of his country and the world. He was an exceptional partner throughout his years of service, bringing our nations closer, supporting peace and rules-based international regimes.
