Washington (CNN)Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe accepted an invitation Saturday to visit President Donald Trump at the White House next month.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer confirmed the news on Twitter shortly after the two leaders had their first phone call since Trump was inaugurated earlier this month.

"During call with Japanese Prime Minister Abe @POTUS invited him to a meeting at White House on February 10th," Spicer tweeted.

However, isn't it truly shameful to visit someone
like Trump.

All that Trump shame rubbing off ... maybe Abe will
have to commit seppuku.

Sometimes I hate this world.

so they're coming calling to shake him (that means the U.S.) down
