Japanese

Japanese voters headed to the elections on Sunday at a tightly disputed election amid public disappointment over the rise in prices and the rapid threat of tariff tariffs.

The governing liberal -democratic party (LDP) and its junior Komeito coalition partner need to ensure the combined 50 seats to keep the total majority in the upper house, but the last polls they may miss.

This election comes in difficult time for Prime Minister Shiger Isaib and his ruling coalition when US President Donald Trump increases pressure on Tokyo during tense tariff talks.

The massive car industry of Japan, which accounts for eight percent of the country’s jobs, is felt from excruciating levies.

Last week, weak exports feared that the fourth largest economy in the world could go into a technical recession.

Despite the fact that ISHIBA provided early meetings with Trump in February, and having sent her trading messenger to Washington seven times, the agreements were not reached.

For voters, the fight against rising prices is also a major problem.

The cost of rice, the main food for Japanese households, has almost doubled since last year.

Over the last few months, the government had to use emergency stocks to resolve the deficit.

Since last year, the LDP has not been able to regain voters, dissatisfied with wages and tireless inflation in the lower elections.

Meanwhile, the Sanseito populist party that uses social media to attract young voters, noticed popularity.

Surveys show that the Japanese first slogan was a chord with some conservatives, although its tough position for foreigners has caused criticism.

The party wants “tougher rules and restrictions on” immigration issues, opposes “globalism” and “radical” gender policy, and wants to rethink your decarbonization and vaccines.

If Ishiba’s ruling coalition does not provide 50 seats, it lost most in both houses of parliament, which could threaten it and lead to political instability.

The right party of the Center for Ishih ruled Japan almost constantly since 1955, albeit with frequent changes in the leader.

The last time the LDP and Komeito could not win the majority in the upper house, was already dropped below the 2007 threshold.

Then a rare change in the government in 2009 took place, when it had been ruled by Japan for three years.
