[Global Network Report] According to Kyodo News and other Japanese media reports on the 20th, the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan and the Japan Reform Association have reached a consensus on forming a ruling coalition. Takaichi sanae, leader of the Liberal Democratic Party, and Yoshimura Yoshimura, leader of the Japan Reform Association, will sign a bipartisan agreement later on the 20th. At the same time, Japan's largest opposition party, the Constitutional Democratic Party, decided on the 20th that it would vote for Noda Yoshihiko, its leader, in the prime minister's nomination election. This means that the Constitutional Democratic Party has given up seeking regime change in this prime minister's nomination election, and it is basically a foregone conclusion that takaichi sanae will be elected as prime minister.

According to reports, the Constitutional Democratic Party had previously sought to nominate a unified candidate for the opposition party with the National Democratic Party and the Japan Reform Association in this prime minister's nominated election. In order to reach an agreement, the Constitutional Democratic Party said it could nominate Yuichiro Tamaki, the leader of the National Democratic Party. However, during the three-party negotiations and consultations, the Liberal Democratic Party invited the Japan Reform Council to join the ruling coalition, and the Japan Reform Council quickly drew closer to the Liberal Democratic Party. Takashi Hayami and Yotomi Yoshimura said on the 20th that the two parties had reached a consensus on forming a ruling coalition. Yofumi Yoshimura said that the party would vote for Takashiki Haraji in the first round of the prime minister's named election.

On the other hand, the Constitutional Democratic Party held a meeting on the 20th to formally decide that it would vote for the party's leader Yoshihiko Noda in the prime minister's named election. Regarding giving up seeking political power change, Anzhu Jun, secretary of the Constitutional Democratic Party, said in an interview with reporters that "we have tried our best to achieve a political power change in this prime minister's named election, but unfortunately it has not been achieved." However, he also said that now that the Komeito Party has separated from the ruling coalition, the Constitutional Democratic Party will continue to communicate with other parties in order to consolidate middle political forces.

The Japanese prime minister's named election will be held on the 21st. Many Japanese media analysts said that Takashi Saami will be elected as prime minister.
