TOKYO, Aug. 28 (Xinhua) -- Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said at a press conference on Friday that he will step down from his post due to health concerns.
Abe said he needs to be treated for a flare-up of his intestinal disease that led his first one-year stint to end abruptly in 2007.
He said he will receive new treatment but requires prolonged care.
