Japan's Premier Shinzo Abe is visiting Germany and held talks with Sekai Ninki(Worldwide popular)German Chancellor-Angela Merkel. Instead of talking Iran or North Korea as Abe did with his British counterpart Tony Blair, he asked merkel's support for Japan's bid for a seat in UN's security council. Both Japan and Germany are bidding for a seat, and both countries are part of failed Group-4 in which four countries(India and Brazil are the other two) worked together to gain a seat.
While Merkel received warm welcome and blessings from Beijing, and she smoozed so well with China's Hu and Wen, Germany is well positioned to get a seat under Ban Ki Moon's UN. While Abe's Japan is a different story, with the ice between Beijing and Tokyo is dissolving, Wen is due to visit Japan in 3 months, and IF Abe indeed restrains himself and his cabinet members visiting the Yasukuni Shrine,Tokyo may will be blessed by Beijing in no time, soon.
