Japan's top government spokesman said Wednesday that the trilateral summit with China and South Korea, scheduled to be held later this month, will be postponed.
Chief Cabinet Secretary Nobutaka Machimura made the announcement at a regular press conference two days after Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda's unexpected resignation.
The meeting is possibly rescheduled to take place "by the end of the year in Japan," said Machimura, adding that China and South Korea have accepted the deferment.
At a press conference hastily called at the prime minister's residence late Monday, Fukuda abruptly announced his resignation as the low approval rating for his cabinet persisted.
