Abe met Ayatollah Ali Khamenei talks for beter relation in nations

Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe met Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, there was talks and discussion between leaders to ease the current tension situation between Tehran and Washington during the first visit by a Japanese premier since the 1979 Islamic revolution. Tokyo is a key ally of Washington and has also traditionally enjoyed good ties with Tehran.
“Meeting with Mr. @AbeShinzo, the Prime Minister of Japan,” said a tweet on Khamenei’s official English-language Twitter account accompanied by a photograph of the two men.
Iran has been locked in a bitter standoff with the United States since US President Donald Trump withdrew from a landmark 2015 nuclear deal in May last year.
Washington has since reimposed crippling unilateral sanctions — which have forced Tokyo to halt its once-substantial purchases of Iranian oil — and launched a military buildup in the Gulf.
