.@SecBlinken on Shinzo Abe assassination: "This is shocking. It's profoundly disturbing in and of itself. It's also such a strong personal loss for so many people. In the U.S., Prime Minister Abe was an extraordinary partner. And someone who clearly was a great leader for Japan."
Sharon Stirling retweeted
Can't overstate how shocking this shooting is -- not only because Abe is very popular and prominent, but also because gun violence is extremely rare incident in Japan, a country with some of the world's strictest gun laws.
Any chance for an alumni get together in DC sometime soon?
A huge thank you to @dankliman, @SharonStirling, @drjwalk, @aya_mumu, and many more! Plus the absurdly accomplished YSF participants (listed below) over the last decade.
And can't wait to do it again next year with @BonnieGlaser and @KristiGovella!
