I can imagine Abe - who also met Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Monday, thinking "This is not a good time for this meeting," while his trade and justice minister resign.

Abe's got some seriously defensive body language.

That unreadable calligraphy "masterpiece" on the wall seems to have been done by an extremely drunk person, or it's in secret code for "No, we're not going to import any more of your rice or oranges, so get over it."
