Okinawa Governor Onaga Meets Prime Minister Abe On U.S. Airbase Relocation

TOKYO, JAPAN - APRIL 17: Okinawa Prefecture Governor Takeshi Onaga (2nd L) and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe (2nd R) shake hands prior to their first meeting at Abe's official residence on April 17, 2015 in Tokyo, Japan. The talks between Abe and Onaga in Tokyo did not lead to a change in the positions held by both sides on the government's plan to relocate U.S. Marine Corps Air Station Futenma in Ginowan, Okinawa Prefecture, to the Henoko area of Nago, also in Okinawa. The sudden decision to have Abe meet with Onaga reflects worries that public opinion was not looking kindly on the central government's attitude of not even listening to the concerns of Okinawa.
