He said that the former Prime Minister Abe helped restore the Japanese economy and achieved important achievements in the field of diplomacy, with the Japan -US Union.

This will be the second state funeral for a former Japanese Prime Minister since World War II.

Former Prime Minister Abe was assassinated on July 8 while speaking in Nara, western Japan.

His funeral was held at Zojoji Pagoda in Tokyo on July 12.

The Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) rules and Prime Minister Kishida can promote the change of the Constitution and increase the defense budget to write Abe's heritage.

The Japanese police deployed an elite officer to protect the former Prime Minister Abe, but a series of mistakes made them unable to stop the assassin.
