Japan moving to right

Coventry Telegraph

February 09, 2026

THE governing coalition of Japan’s Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi looks almost certain to win a single-party majority in a key parliamentary election, NHK public television and other major networks said yesterday, citing their exit poll results.

NHK says Ms Takaichi’s ruling coalition, led by her Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), could win more than two-thirds of the 465-seat lower house, the more powerful of the country’s two-chamber parliament. The huge jump from its pre-election share could allow Ms Takaichi to make progress on a right-wing agenda that aims to boost Japan’s economy and military capabilities, as tensions grow with China and she tries to nurture ties with the United States.
