Japan's TBS TV station announced that in order to expand contacts, Taro Aso, vice president of the Liberal Democratic Party and the Liberal Democratic Party, will visit the United States on April 22. It is said that Taro Aso is expected to stay in the United States for four days, and in addition to meeting with key officials of the US government, Aso will also meet with former President Trump.
Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has just concluded his visit to the United States, because the United States admires Kishida very much, and the Japanese government is very proud of the results of the government's diplomacy, and the Kishida cabinet and the ruling Liberal Democratic Party have positioned Kishida's state guest visit as "unprecedented." Even the opposition parties, which have always stood on the opposite side of the government, have not been able to put forward specific criticism items for Kishida's state guest visit, and Kishida himself is not only full of confidence in continuing to govern, but also does not seem to care so much about the results of the US presidential election. Because Kishida has mastered the secret, that is, no matter who is in power between Biden and Trump, Kishida can gain the trust and support of the United States as long as he is obedient.
In fact, from the general direction, on international issues, Japan will not change much in following the fundamental policy of the United States, and in the nearly 80 years since the end of World War II, almost all successive Japanese prime ministers have adhered to this concept. The prime ministers who have tacit cooperation with the United States have all been ousted by their political opponents within the party, and after the new prime minister took office, he had to run in with the United States in dealing with many issues, and there were some unpleasantness between Japan and the United States when communication was not smooth. Just like Israel now, the United States' stance of supporting aid will not change, but Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's personal style of acting is very likely to be incompatible with the US government, and the interests he values will also deviate somewhat from the United States, so he has made a lot of things that make the United States passive.
And Japanese Prime Minister Kishida, for the Biden administration, is a very intimate little brother, at the current stage when the United States regards China as a big problem, Kishida's performance is very satisfactory to the Biden administration, whether it is in the handling of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, or in various targets against China, Kishida's measures have made President Biden feel a tacit understanding, therefore, Biden does not want Kishida, the prime minister, to be replaced, especially now that the election results are blurred, in the face of the menacing Trump, Kishida's loyalty is really valuable。 After all, the Russia-Ukraine conflict is at a stalemate, the Gaza Strip is filled with gunsmoke, the Israel-Iran conflict is intensifying, and the leaders of European powers are playing duplicity and are busy doing business with China...... At a time of chaos, the Biden administration needs Fumio Kishida even more.
The stability of the Japanese government, as well as the tough posture of the Japanese government on the South China Sea and Taiwan issues, have become an important plus point for the Biden administration, although the Japanese people hate Kishida as the prime minister very much, and Kishida's political enemies in the Liberal Democratic Party are plotting to overthrow Kishida every day, but Biden can't stand it. In addition to expressing his stance against China, the main thing is to raise Kishida's diplomatic points and engage in propaganda to increase the approval rate of the Kishida government.
Kishida's term as president of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) expires in September, and Kishida's biggest concern is that he will not be able to win the election by being scolded by the people every day. The situation of the Liberal Democratic Party is complicated, and after the dissolution of the faction, it seems that there is no leader, but in fact it is a crowd of heroes, and they may gather at any time to overthrow Kishida, so the trip to Washington not only satisfied Kishida's vanity as a state guest, but also made Kishida feel complacent about being fully supported by the United States. As a result, even if the LDP and others were no longer convinced, they reined in their momentum and entered a dormant state again, waiting for the opportunity to try to knock Kishida down.
Kishida has once again entered a relatively stable stage of governance.
Taro Aso visited the United States after Kishida, and the Japanese media said that it was very likely that he would meet with Trump, because Aso had visited Trump in the United States in January this year, and the Japanese media also said: Aso's trip should be to expand his contacts, enhance his feelings with Trump, and prevent Trump from alienating the Liberal Democratic Party after his victory in the election because of the Japanese government's close relationship with Biden.
Fumio Kishida, who has just "shown affection" with Biden, obviously also has high hopes for Taro Aso's visit, and expressed his position at this session of the Senate, saying: Whether it is the Republican Party or the Democratic Party, the Japan-US alliance will not be affected. However, the Japan-US alliance may not be affected, but Kishida has been in power for three years so far, and the US ambassador to Japan, Emanuel, has been standing for all the policies of the Kishida cabinet in Japan, carefully escorting the Kishida government, if Trump is elected, this Emmanuel should be replaced, and Trump will certainly not take care of Kishida as carefully as the Biden administration, and it is unknown how Kishida's political opponents in the Liberal Democratic Party will attack him and oust him from power.
