Prime Minister of Japan ShinzÅ Abe has become the longest-serving PM in the country. This is a notable achievement for a leader who once relinquished power amid allegations of humiliation, economic concerns and violation of electoral laws. Abe, 65, is relatively well-liked for his diplomacy. His heated relationship with US President Donald Trump saved him from creating the worst situation in a trade feud.
However, little progress has been made with Russia on a regional border and relations with South Korea are cold. Opposition legislator Akisa Nagashima once said that no other global can run so well with Trump. Abe spent a year in trouble in 2007 before leaving power. He then returned to power in December 2012 with the goal of revising Japan's post-war pacifist policy, promising to build a strong army and deliver an improved economy.
He broke the record created by Taro Katsura more than a decade ago. Abe has been the Prime Minister for 2887 days till now. Abe led his ruling coalition to national elections six times after his return to power and won it. The biggest reason for this is that he is better than the government of the DJP. Mogg, two ministers close to Abe were forced to resign over allegations of violation of election campaign law following a cabinet reshuffle in September.
