Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, who has been a key figure in Japan’s political scene for many years, faces an uncertain future after losing his parliamentary majority following a strong showing by right-wing populists. The political shift has sparked concerns about the stability of the government and the potential for further changes in Japan’s leadership.
The rise of far-right populism in Japan has raised questions about the country’s political direction and the impact on its democratic institutions. With Ishiba’s position now under threat, the situation highlights the growing influence of right-wing groups in the country’s political landscape.
