On October 15, the Japanese government and the self-government party will convene the Provisional Congress to hold elections for the nomination of a new prime minister.

Takashi Saami was known as the "Japanese version of Margaret Thatcher" in the early days. Some analysts pointed out that her election victory is of great symbolic significance, but at the same time, her tough style may lead to the disintegration of the ruling coalition between the Liberal Democratic Party and the Komeito Party, and the opposition parties have low willingness to cooperate.

Takaichi sanae was born in Nara Prefecture, graduated from the School of Business of Kobe University, and later served as a professor in the School of Economics of Kinki University. He also worked as a news program host in Asahi TV and Fuji TV. Her husband is Takuo Yamamoto, a member of the Liberal Democratic Party, and they have adopted two children.

In 2012, Shinzo Abe took the prime minister for the first time after selecting a large number of female politicians, and the representatives of these "Abbé girls" were appointed to serve as general affairs ministers several times.

In terms of economic claims, she is considered the heir to the “Abbé Economy,” suggesting reducing the burden on and individuals through tax cuts, and plans to issue cash subsidies to stimulate consumption and economic growth.

In terms of foreign policy, the company opposed Fukushima's nuclear pollution, held a right-wing stance on historical issues and demanded a new official conversation on the issue of comfort women.

On gender issues, she conforms to the consistent women's policy of the Liberal Democratic Party and advocates that women should play the traditional role of "husbands and children".

The self-government party has dominated Japanese politics for 70 years. The term of office was originally scheduled for September 2027.In the parliamentary elections held on July 20, this year, the ruling coalition of the self-government party and the party had less than half of the seats in parliament.Until the afternoon of September 7, the self-government party announced that it had to resign due to the gradual results of the tariff negotiations with the United States and to avoid split within the party.

There are five candidates participating in this election. In addition to Saami Takashi, there are also former Secretary-General of the Liberal Democratic Party Toshishimitsu Shigeki, current Chief Cabinet Secretary Hayashi, Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Shinjiro Koizumi, and former Minister in charge of Economic Security and Security Takayuki Kobayashi.

As the election approaches, Takaichi Sanae's support rate continues to rise as some members of the Kishida faction within the Liberal Democratic Party turn to support and the Aso faction makes a clear statement.

Behind takaichi sanae are staunch right-wing supporters, unlike moderate representatives Lin Fangzheng and Motegi Toshimitsu, who have the ability to cohesion within the party and coordinate with the opposition parties.

Takaichi Sanae may become Shigeru Ishiba's successor, once saying that Japan should "fight a hot war" with China.

Recently, there have been one earthquake after another in Asian politics. The Thai Prime Minister has just been replaced, and the Japanese Prime Minister has been dismissed again.

As an influential power figure within the Self-Democratic Party, the withdrawal of Sharapova is not only a major turning point in his personal political career, but also reflects deep contradictions within Japanese politics, but also brings more uncertainty to the future Asian political pattern.



Shapiro announced resignation.

What did he do wrong

On September 7th, local time, the press conference was held to announce the resignation of the party president, less than a year after he was elected.

Shigeru Ishiba once bluntly stated in his autobiography "Conservative Politician: My Policy, My Destiny" that if it was his turn to be prime minister one day, it would be when the Liberal Democratic Party and Japan were in a serious crisis deadlock.

A prophecy.

The public reason for Shigeru Ishiba's resignation is to take responsibility for the fiasco in the Senate election in July, and the root cause is the difficulty of how to choose the development path of Japan.

At the beginning, he also wanted to become a "reformer", a big job.

Therefore, on the one hand, he tried to use some soft words to "please" China in exchange for China's ban on the import of Japanese water products, but on the other hand, he did not want to blame the United States, and also often cooperate with the United States on sensitive issues such as Taiwan, the South China Sea.

In this regard, the U.S. "New York Times" believes that the statements of Shapiro Mou in Washington have made China "extremely dissatisfied". China has lost patience with his "disparity" approach, China-Japan relations have rapidly warmed, trade barriers and diplomatic coldness have emerged.

And Trump's tariff barrel, but also the stone broke into the abyss. The content of the new trade agreement between Japan and the United States was exposed, the pot was directly blown up in Japan. The word "trade agreement" on social platforms provoked the nerves of the Japanese people.

At the moment when the competition between great powers is becoming increasingly fierce, the "strategic ambiguity" space of medium-sized powers is being sharply compressed. When economic security and military alliance cannot be balanced, the stepping down of political leaders often becomes the final solution to divert contradictions.



Takaichi Sanae is accused of being much more radical than Shigeru Ishiba

Who will be the successor?

With Shigeru Ishiba's stepping down, all political forces have been eyeing up.

Within the Liberal Democratic Party, takaichi sanae has the highest voice. Last year, she competed with Shigeru Ishiba in the presidential election of the Liberal Democratic Party, and almost won. This time, she made a comeback.

This woman is a typical conservative right wing, the stance is more radical than the stone broom. she dared to go publicly to visit the Yakuza shrine, not only once.

She also shouted all day to "strengthen national security". To put it bluntly, she wanted to make Japan's military power stronger. He even publicly stated that if something happens across the Taiwan Strait, Japan should "fight a hot war" with China. Just like a figure living in the pile of old papers in the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Circle".

In addition to the high-market early plantation, there are also the potential candidates of小泉进次郎 and林芳正.

He is the son of the former prime minister, Xiao Jian, and is a "second generation of officials", but in the outside world, he is only a product of Japanese political idolatry, can speak a beautiful environmental slogans, but can not come up with any viable policy.

In contrast, technocrats like Lin Fangzheng may understand economy and diplomacy, but what they know better is the survival rules of this system. They know that any reform that tries to shake up the rules will eventually be crushed by the rules themselves.

Because now the prime minister of Japan has long lost his substantive rights as a national leader. He is more like a professional manager, responsible for coordinating factions, appeasing bureaucrats and pleasing the United States, but he doesn't need to be responsible for the future of this country.

Where is the Middle Day?

Shigeru Ishiba's resignation is just a regular drama of power alternation in Japan's political arena, and Japan's inner-party division, economic weakness, predicament of being constrained by the United States, and passive situation in Sino-Japanese relations will not disappear with his departure. This so-called "political earthquake" is more like a mirror, showing the true appearance of Japan's current dilemma in the international pattern.

The fall of Shikoku may be a sign that Japan's right-wing forces will regain power.In the future, if Japan's politics pursue the "Japan priority" path, it may meet some popular opinion in the short term, but in the long run, this practice will make Japan increasingly isolated on the international stage.

History has long proved that over-reliance on nationalism and foreign adventure will only drag Japan into a deeper predicament.

Regardless of how the Japanese political situation changes, China has always had sufficient strategic preparation and will not be disturbed by external provocations.China has been firmly committed to promoting the stable and healthy development of China-Japanese relations, but also resolutely defended its core interests and will not make any concessions on principle issues.

The United States can not "save" Japan, look directly at history and acknowledge history, only so can Japan come out of the illusion and struggle for more space for itself.
