Admin’s Note

Former Prime Minister Kishida has indicated that he will not run in the party leadership election, which could influence movements within the Liberal Democratic Party. Particularly, the fact that it has been less than a year since his resignation is generally a significant timing for politicians. As mentioned in Chako’s remarks, the call for an early resolution will likely be a crucial factor for the political landscape moving forward. I will be paying close attention to future developments.
