Tokyo shocked by the high-market early-size group cabinet, the strong return of Taro, Japan's most anti-Chinese government in 20 years?
On October 7, Japan's self-government party's first female president, Cao市早苗, announced a remarkable personal arrangement at the provisional general office meeting: Mahatma Gandhi was appointed vice president,村治子 was chief executive officer, and铃木俊一 was chief executive officer.
This layout may seem calm, but it hides complex political games.
As a favorite pupil of Shinzo Abe, sanae takaichi's right-wing position has long been widely known, and her election has been interpreted by the outside world as the birth of "the most anti-China government in Japan in 20 years".
However, the deep bundling of the Chinese and Japanese economies, domestic people's livelihood difficulties and the complexity of the international situation will undoubtedly become realistic challenges that cannot be avoided by the high market and the early seedlings.
The political history of High City Mornington is known as the "right-wing textbook".
From denying the history of aggression to visiting the Yasukuni Shrine, from advocating constitutional amendments to making nonsense remarks on the Taiwan issue, every step she takes is at the pace of provoking the sensitive nerves of China.
However, whether her radical stance can be translated into practical policies still depends on Japan's domestic political reality.
The factional struggle within the Liberal Democratic Party is complicated, and sanae takaichi's victory is inseparable from Taro Aso's support.
In the runoff vote, the vote of Aso faction directly contributed to her victory. In return, Taro Aso not only won the important position of vice president, but also arranged Shunichi Suzuki, the general of the faction, as the secretary general, almost controlling the core operation of the Liberal Democratic Party.
This also means that the policy advance of the high market will be strongly constrained by the traditional conservatives.
Despite the high-profile demonstration of a tough attitude toward China during the election campaign, she could not ignore the reality of the deep bondage of the Chinese economy.
With more than $300 billion in bilateral trade each year, any attempt to go to extremes with China could have a serious impact on Japan’s economy.
Japan’s exports to China include automotive, electronics, and chemicals, while China is one of Japan’s largest trading partners.
This economic "intangible rope" has caused the high market to have a caution when formulating policies.
If the government is called the "most anti-Chinese government in 20 years", it is inevitable that one reminds one of the early 21st century's era.
Koizumi's visit to the Yasukuni Shrine has plunged Sino-Japanese relations into a situation of "cold politics and hot economy", but he still maintains cooperation in the economic field.
In contrast, the attempt by Goldman Sachs to simultaneously push for a tough policy in many areas such as historical correction, military expansion, technological blockade and economic disconnection is clearly more challenging than it was in the era of the Small Springs.
However, historical experience has shown that the attitude of Japanese politicians toward China is often adjusted as their positions change.
It is almost the usual behavior of Liberal Democratic Party politicians to campaign passionately and return to pragmatism after taking office.
Gao Shi early Miao's road to power is destined to be difficult.
The Liberal Democratic Party has not reached a stable majority in both the Senate and House of Representatives, and her policy advancement will face constraints from party factions and domestic public opinion.
There is limited public support for right-wing policies in Japan, especially in the context of the economic downturn and prominent people's livelihood issues. If Takashiro insists on pursuing radical policies, he may face a public opinion backlash.
In addition, international factors such as intensified strategic competition between China and the United States and tight global supply chains are also compressing her policy operation space.
On the surface, Takashi Zaomiao seems to hold power, but her radical ideas are likely to become a stumbling block on the road to power.
Mahatma Gandhi’s powerful return once again confirms the unchanging truth in Japanese politics: the main character on the surface is not necessarily the real director.
In the seam of real politics, how long the "anti-Chinese" flag of the high market will still be able to play, remains to be observed.
