Japan, the funeral of discord: protests at the state funeral for former premier Abe

BEIJING – With nineteen cannon shots, Japan gives its last farewell to the former premier Shinzo Abe, assassinated on July 8 during an election rally. In Tokyo, however, the state funeral of discord is staged.

About 4,300 guests were invited to the Nippon Budokan – a building for sporting events and concerts – including leaders who have flown to the Japanese capital from half the world.
