TOKYO, Feb 9 : Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe urged Thailand's military rulers on Monday to return as soon as possible to civilian rule as he met his counterpart and former army chief Prayut Chan-O-Cha in Tokyo.
The Thai junta chief is in Tokyo after receiving his first invitation from a G7 country since the coup in May, which took place days after democratically elected prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra was ousted by a court ruling following months of street protests.    ?AFP
