Japan Opposition Leader

Chinese President Xi Jinping congratulated Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) decimating the opposition and the BJP emerging as the single-largest party in the national election.

Japan's battle-scarred main opposition party Wednesday began choosing a new leader as it seeks to recover from a disastrous showing in December's general election and from years of drift.

South Korea reacted angrily on Thursday to a visit by Japanese opposition leader Shinzo Abe to a Tokyo war shrine, saying Japan should "have the courage" to face up to its brutal wartime aggression.

Former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe won a party election on Wednesday to make him leader of Japan's main opposition group, a position that may put him in line to become premier at the next election.
