Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said on Monday he will visit Hawaii on Dec. 26-27 for a summit with U.S. President Barack Obama and to remember the victims of Japan's Pearl Harbor attack 75 years ago, reports Reuters.

Abe's visit comes after Obama made a trip to Hiroshima in May, the first sitting U.S. president to visit the Japanese city that the United States dropped an atomic bomb on in 1945.

Japan attacked U.S. forces at Pearl Harbor in December 1941.
