Since former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's assassination on July 8th, dozens of Liberal Democratic Party officials, including many in Abe's political faction, have come under fire for their connections to the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification, also known as the Unification Church. In addition, lawyers, including three who spoke at FCCJ last month, have focused on its controversial recruitment and donation methods. Please join us as the church's top executives in Japan come to FCCJ to explain their views on the developments, reports, and allegations of the past month.
