Extra Diet session adjourns, regular session to begin Jan. 18

TOKYO, Japan - Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda (L) and House of Councillors President Satsuki Eda pose for photographers during a meeting at parliament on Jan. 15 after the Diet breaks off for a two-day recess. The extraordinary Diet session, which was convened Sept. 10 under then Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and adjourned Jan. 15, was twice extended to allow the government to push through a new law to allow Japan to resume its refueling mission for allied warships in the Indian Ocean. The regular Diet session convenes on Jan. 18. (Kyodo)
