The ruling Liberal Democratic Party has proposed summoning former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to parliament . According to sources from the Kyodo agency, he is suspected of illegally using funds to pay for dinner parties.
According to the agency, the goal of this move is to avoid public outrage, which could undermine the credibility of Yoshihide Suge, Shinzo Abe's successor. According to sources, Mr. Abe may address parliament by the end of the year.
Opposition parties have demanded that Shinzo Abe respond to allegations that the group that manages his political funds spent 9 million yen (about $ 90,000) from 2015 to 2019 to cover some of the cost of banquets at luxury hotels attended by his supporters.
Shinzo Abe resigned in September for health reasons. Yoshihide Suga became the new prime minister . He held the key post of the general secretary of the Cabinet of Ministers in the Abe government.
