According to NHK public television on Monday, on Monday during the key parliamentary elections on Monday’s coalition, most of the Japanese government coalition of Shiger Shiger Ishib did not ensure most of the Japanese government coalition.
The Liberal Democratic Party of Ishiba (LDP) and its junior partner, Komeito, needed to get 50 other seats to maintain their majority and put on the 75 they had already held. However, with the remaining only one seat, which was called, the coalition secured only 47, which did not reach the target.

Prime Minister Shiger Ishiba bet that his firm attitude towards business negotiations with US President Trump would strengthen his fragile possession of power, after election failure last fall and less than a year in office.
“I want to talk to US President Donald Trump at first what can be found to seek a business solution,” Ishiba said after the elections.
He noted that Japan would try to achieve an agreement with the US on tariffs in the protection of national interests, Reuters reported.
Meanwhile, the reconnaissance activity revealed that Japanese voters were more interested in domestic problems such as inflation and immigration than the threat of American tariffs.
What about business interviews in USA-Japan?
Ishib’s removal from the Office could trigger political restless weeks before 1 August to reach a trade agreement with Washington or to face 25 % of the Japanese export tariff. According to The Wall Street Journal, economists warn that such a sharp trip in the duties of the largest business partner in Japan could push the export economy in the country into the recession.
“We are currently dealing with negotiations on the US tariff,” Ishiba said on Sunday in a television interview because the results came. “I met myself in the face of President Trump twice and spoke to him many times on the phone. That’s something we can’t be wasting.”

“The political situation has become smooth and in the coming months it could lead to a change in leadership or a change in the coalition, but Prime Minister Shiger Ishiba is likely to remain with the US tariffs,” Norihiro Yamaguchi, the Oxford economy, said.
In his second term, Trump accepted tariffs as the main instrument of his economic and foreign policy and a permanent feature of the US economy. A country such as the United Kingdom, Indonesia and Vietnam, which achieved agreements with the White House, had to swallow higher tariffs.
The public frustration mountains are limited progress in Ishiba in that the impending 25% of US tariffs set out on 1 August, a problem that has increased economic anxiety throughout the country.
“If the ruling party solved one of these problems, their consent could have improved. But we did not see any real action and feels as if the US was constantly pushing us,” said Hideaki Matsuda, a 60 -year -old company manager who spoke outside Tokyo’s Busy Shinjuku Station on Monday morning.
“The world has changed. We are all living in the Trump world now, and we all have to adapt to it,” said David Boling, director of Japan and Asian trade in Eurasia Group, a consulting company and a former US business negotiator, as WSJ says.

The Liberal Democratic Party of Ishiba (LDP), which dominated Japanese post-war policy with his coalition partner Komeito, provided only 47 seats in the upper chamber elections and did not reach 50 necessary to maintain most of the 248-seater chamber where half of the seats were connected.
I will fulfill my responsibility as party leader No. 1 and work for the country.
The world has changed. We are all living in the Tariff’s Trump world now and we all have to adapt to it.
In response to the result of Yoshihiko Noda, leader of the main opposition constitutional democratic party (CDPJ), said on Sunday that she is considering introducing the vote on Ishiba administration, which means that the results indicate a lack of public confidence in the government.
The developing populist party Sanseito pointed out its hard attitude against foreign attitude and promoted the “Japanese first” agenda that includes the creation of a new policy -related agency. Its platform also contains strong anti-vaccine rhetoric, opposition to globalism and support for traditional gender roles.
