Foreign Ministry spokesperson Le Hai Binh on December 16 offered congratulations to Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo and his Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) for their success at the polls during the snap parliamentary elections.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s ruling coalition of LDP and its smaller partner New Komeito have secured a two-thirds majority in Parliament’s Lower House, winning 326 of 475 seats, well above the threshold of 129 necessary to control all standing committees in the chamber. 

We believe the Japanese nation will continue to develop strongly and the Vietnam-Japan strategic partnership will be further strengthened, meeting the interests and aspirations of the two nations – contributing to peace, stability and prosperity in the region and the world at large, said Binh.
