What Just Happened? Japan’s Fragmenting Politics

In this episode, Ignacio delves into the recent shifts in Japanese politics following the upper house election. Our Principal Analyst for the Asia Pacific region, Jonah Kaplan, joins Ignacio to explain the fragmentation of political power as the ruling Liberal Democratic Party loses its majority, and smaller parties rise with distinct policy proposals. Together they explore the implications of this power shift, the challenges faced by Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba and the potential impact on Japan's fiscal and defense policies. Tune in to understand the evolving political landscape and what it means for Japan's future.
