Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is seen through a prompter as he speaks at a news conference in Tokyo, Japan, December 9, 2019. REUTERS/Kim Kyung-HoonTOKYO: Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is likely to fulfill his tenure as head of the ruling party, and therefore premier, until his term ends in September next year, one of his closest aides told Reuters on Tuesday .
Akira Amari dispelled concerns over the premier's health, saying Abe now appeared to be in much better shape than the last time Amari saw him, in mid-August. On that occasion, Abe was"probably exhausted mentally", he said."I think he will fulfill his term," Amari, the head of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party's tax panel, said when asked whether the premier would stay on as head of the party until next September.
Amari said that when he saw Abe on television on Monday, his"voice was stronger and the colour had returned to his skin".
