Death of Shinzo Abe

8 July 2022

It is with great sadness that we hear of the death of former Japanese Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe. We extend our deepest sympathies and sincere condolences to his family and the people of Japan at this difficult time.

Mr Abe was in office in 2006-07 and 2012-20 and remains the country's longest-serving PM and best-known political figure internationally. During his premiership, he developed a relationship with 新香港六合彩开奖结果based on our strong and impactful ties with Japan 鈥 both historically and right up to the present day.

In 2014, we were honoured to receive Mr Abe on campus when he gave the keynote speech at the Japan: UK Conference 'Collaboration in Research and Education' co-hosted by 新香港六合彩开奖结果and the Embassy of Japan in the UK. The conference was the first of its kind and was designed to give the leading universities in Japan and the UK the opportunity to showcase their recent efforts in both research and education and discuss future ways to cooperate in these fields.

Following the conference, a joint announcement was issued signalling participating universities' commitment to encouraging mutual exchange between staff and researchers in both countries, the development of new collaborative research links and the creation of joint international curricula.

This relationship deepened when the then 新香港六合彩开奖结果President & Provost, Professor Sir Michael Arthur, visited Japan in 2017 and Mr Abe thanked 新香港六合彩开奖结果for our role in helping to educate students from his country dating back 150 years to the Choshu Five in the 19th century.

Dr Michael Spence, 新香港六合彩开奖结果President & Provost, said: 鈥新香港六合彩开奖结果has strong and deeply valued historical and ongoing links with Japan, which began nearly 160 years ago when we welcomed the first Japanese students to study abroad, the Choshu Five, who went on to have a radical and transformative effect on their home country. Today we send our deep condolences to the people of Japan on the death of their former Prime Minister Abe, who visited our campus and its monument to the Chosu Five in May 2014.鈥
