 Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Monday called a snap general election in a bid to consolidate power in the midst of a diplomatic crisis with North Korea, according to media reports. Abe said he'll dissolve parliament on Thursday Sept. 28, but didn't give a date for the election. There's speculation that the vote will be held on Oct. 22, more than a year sooner than planned. The prime minister's Liberal Democratic Party is likely to make a strong showing in the election, with 44% support versus 8% for the main opposition Democratic Party, according to a poll out on Sunday. Abe said the decision to call the election now was influenced by the tensions with North Korea, which lately has fired several missiles over Japanese territory. 'We must not give into the threat of North Korea. I hope to gain the confidence of the people in the upcoming election and push forward strong diplomacy,' Abe said, according to CNN. The yen fell against the dollar, with the greenback buying ¥112.04, up from ¥111.99 late Friday in New York.

President Barack Obama gave Facebook Inc. Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg 'a wake-up call' last November over Russia's use of social media to meddle in the U.S. election, according to a Washington Post report Sunday. On Nov. 19, nine days after Zuckerberg called the idea that Facebook ads played a key role in the election 'crazy,' Obama told Zuckerberg of the damage political disinformation had played, and warned his company needed to do more to address the threat. While Zuckerberg reportedly downplayed Facebook's impact in his talk with Obama, last week Zuckerberg announced broad changes in how Facebook deals with political ads, and turned over 3,000 Russia-linked ads to congressional investigators. 'I don't want anyone to use our tools to undermine democracy,' Zuckerberg said in a video.
