安倍创连续执政新纪录

Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Monday set a new record for the longest consecutive term in office but faced growing speculation about his health as he returned to hospital.

8月24日，日本首相安倍晋三创下日本首相最长连续执政纪录，但却因再次前往医院引发了关于其健康状况的越来越多的猜测。

Abe, 65, spent more than seven hours at a Tokyo hospital last week during a previously unannounced medical check-up that his aides insisted was routine.

上周，65岁的安倍在东京一家医院待了7个多小时，其助手坚称他只是接受常规体检，但这次体检事先并未对外公布。

Local media cited sources as saying Abe's return visit Monday was to receive the results of that check-up, but no further information was provided.

当地媒体引用知情人士的话称，安倍此次返回医院是为了听取上周检查结果，但没有透露更多细节。

As of Monday, Abe has been in power for 2,799 uninterrupted days, breaking the record previously set by his great uncle Eisaku Sato.

截至8月24日，安倍已经连续在位2799天，打破了其外叔祖父佐藤荣作此前创下的纪录。
