Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba intends to abandon the possible lack of deteriorating the situation in the Middle East and US President Donald Trump, including Iran, citing sources.
Earlier, South Korean President Lee Zhe Munig also refused to attend the summit. His administration explained this "in many state cases after the inauguration" and "changed the situation in the Middle East."
In recent years, the Prime Minister of Japan has always participated in the meetings of the leaders of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. It is expected that his place of foreign minister Takesh Ivania will take place in The Hague.
