今天，日本執(zhí)政的自民黨新總裁安倍晉三將在參眾兩院全體會(huì)議上被提名為首相。由于該黨在議會(huì)中所占有的絕對優(yōu)勢，安倍將毫無疑問地當(dāng)選日本首相。而日本新內(nèi)閣也會(huì)在今天夜里正式成立。有評論認(rèn)為，26日就任日本首相的安倍晉三，在外交上面臨的最大課題就是修復(fù)目前極度惡化的日中關(guān)系；而修復(fù)關(guān)系的關(guān)鍵，是能否恢復(fù)雙方的首腦會(huì)談；恢復(fù)首腦會(huì)談的關(guān)鍵，就在于“靖國問題”。

| Shinzo Abe, an advocate of tighter military ties
with the United States, was set to be elected Japan's prime minister by
parliament on Tuesday, confirming him at 52 as the country's youngest
leader since World War Two.
The hawkish Abe, a relative
novice by Japanese political
standards, faces the challenges of repairing ties with China -- frayed by
predecessor Junichiro
Koizumi's visits to the Yasukuni war shrine -- and keeping
economic reforms on track while addressing voter concerns about widening
social gaps.
Abe, elected president of the Liberal Democratic Party last week by a
two-thirds majority, was to be approved as prime minister by both chambers
of parliament, where the party holds a majority, and will announce his
cabinet the same day.
A soft-spoken, popular lawmaker whose grandfather was also prime
minister, Abe has pledged to rewrite Japan's pacifist constitution, boost
Tokyo's say in global affairs, and revive respect for traditional values
and pride in Japan's past.
He has also promised to nurture growth while pushing ahead with the
economic reforms begun by Koizumi, and give precedence to spending cuts
before tax rises in the struggle to rein in Japan's huge public debt, the
biggest among advanced countries.
Abe's ascent to the nation's top job brings down the curtain on the
sometimes tumultuous reign of Koizumi, one of Japan's most colourful and
popular leaders in decades.
Koizumi, a media-savvy maverick known
for snappy soundbites and cameo appearances with celebrities, stamped his
mark on Japan's political scene after taking power in April 2001 with
promises to pry his party loose from the grip of vested interests and lift
government's heavy hand from the stalled economy.
