According to Japan's "朝日新聞" on 19th, on the day of the opposition party's meeting of the permanent directorate in Osaka headquarters, the meeting did not appear to oppose the joint governing with the ruling party's self-government party. At present, the two parties have reached a basic consensus in policy negotiations, plans to sign the relevant agreement on 20th.

The Liberal Democratic Party and the Reform Council each have their own "worries"
Kyodo News said that the Reform Council will not join the cabinet and will initially adopt a "cooperation outside the cabinet" approach, that is, its members will not join the cabinet. If we can promote the implementation of policies, we will also consider joining the cabinet. The Liberal Democratic Party President Saami Takashi and the Party Leader of the Reform Association Yotomi Yoshimura will sign a joint governance agreement document on the 20th.
"Intra-cabinet cooperation" means that cooperative political parties send cabinet officials, deputy ministers, administrative officials and other administrative officials to the government. Take the current Shigeru Ishiba regime as an example. Yochang Nakano, a member of the Komeito Party, holds the post of Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in his cabinet. "Nihon Keizai Shimbun" said on the 19th that "intra-cabinet cooperation" can give the ruling party greater influence and decision-making power in policy formulation, but at the same time, there are significant risks-the cabinet members of the cooperative political parties will become the focus of the opposition party's inquiry and accountability in the parliamentary deliberation.
According to the report, only the former Prime Minister of Foreign Affairs and the former Minister of Homeland Transportation had cabinet experience, and concerns about the lack of "talent experience" in the party have always existed. There are also concerns within the People's Party. Japan Times news agency said on 19th that the negotiations between the People's Party and the People's Society on the formation of a joint regime have entered the final phase, and the 12 appeals made by the People's Party contain a cautious attitude of the People's Party, fear that the joint regime will bury a hidden danger.
Strong criticism from the opposition.
In the policy consultation with the Liberal Democratic Party, the Japan Reform Association put forward political reform demands such as reducing the number of members of Congress by 10% and prohibiting political contributions from enterprises and groups.
Japan's Jiji News Agency said in another report on the 19th that the Reform Council had also always attached importance to the resolution of "politics and money" issues. In view of the "black gold scandal" of the Liberal Democratic Party faction, in previous discussions on corporate donations in Congress, the Reform Council was even more radical than the Constitutional Democratic Party and the National Democratic Party, advocating a complete ban on corporate donations.
Jiji News Agency reported that the core demand of the Reform Council is to "reduce the number of members of Congress" in order to avoid the serious inequality of vote rights under the current electoral system. It plans to reduce the number of members of Congress by about 10% with proportional representation seats as the core. However, the Komeito Party and the Communist Party, which use proportional representation as the main "battlefield", will be strongly constrained by this. The leader of the Komeito Party, Tetsuo Saito, bluntly said that the move was "too rude." Senior members of the Liberal Democratic Party were also worried: "This will put us completely against the Komeito Party."
According to the news agency, for small and medium-sized political parties, the seats of proportional representation are related to their "life and death", and it is still unpredictable whether the Reform Association can advance as expected. In addition, the Reform Association also advocates the abolition of political contributions from enterprises and groups, which is stricter than the scheme of "limiting the recipients of donations" put forward by Komeito Party, which has withdrawn from the ruling coalition. If this matter ends vaguely, the Reform Association may face the criticism of "compromising to give priority to joining the coalition regime".
US media: Gaoshi is in the "eye of the storm"
According to the regulations, the Japanese prime minister nomination elections first vote in both Houses of Representatives. If someone wins more than half of the votes in the first round, they will be nominated as prime minister. If no one gets more than half of the votes, the first two most voted will be final elections, and the one who gets more votes will be nominated as prime minister. If the nomination of the two Houses is divergent, a meeting of the two Houses will be convened for discussion, and if there is still no consensus, the results of the House vote will be determined. Therefore, the composition of the House of Representatives is key.
At present, the House of Representatives of Japan has a total of 465 seats, mainly consisting of: the Democratic Party of Japan 196 seats, the Constitutional Democratic Party 148 seats, the Vichy Congress 35 seats, the National Democratic Party 27 seats, the Vichy Party 24 seats. In the House of Representatives to get more than half of the seats needs at least 233 seats. According to Japanese media reports, the Vichy Congress and the Vichy Party signed an agreement on joint governing, the city will receive Vichy support in the prime minister nomination elections expected on 21st, and will probably become the prime minister of Japan and form a cabinet.
The Japanese edition of Newsweek published an article on the 18th stating that Takashi Saami is currently in the "eye of the storm" at home and abroad. If he becomes prime minister, the supplementary budget review related to price response, which is listed as the top priority by him, may also be Deadlocked. The possibility of the new prime minister dissolving parliament and holding a general election cannot be ruled out. In addition, a series of diplomatic agendas are also waiting for Gaoshi's early seedlings. The article stated that Japan's governance system is gradually becoming hollow. Against the background of the current drastic changes in the global landscape, Japan is in the most vulnerable position. If governance is absent, all Japanese will be affected.
