Japan's Ruling Party Confirms Shigeru Ishiba as Next Prime Minister
ai generated text
Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has resigned, as planned, and has been replaced by Shigeru Ishiba, who was chosen as the leader of the governing Liberal Democratic Party. Ishiba was officially elected as the new Prime Minister of Japan by the parliament, which is dominated by the ruling coalition. Ishiba's appointment comes after Kishida stepped down earlier this month, reportedly due to public outrage over corruption scandals within his party. Ishiba is expected to hold a news conference to announce his Cabinet.
As we face a critical moment in and outside the country, I earnestly hope key policies that will pioneer Japan's future will be powerfully pursued by the new Cabinet.
The absence of a collective self-defense system like NATO in Asia means that wars are likely to break out because there is no obligation for mutual defense. Under these circumstances, the creation of an Asian version of NATO is essential to deter China by its Western allies.
I will squarely face the people, discuss policies sincerely to gain their understanding. My government won't walk away from challenges and get things done.
I believe it is important to have the new administration get the public's judgment as soon as possible.
