NHK reported that Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba said on the 27th that the House of Representatives could be dissolved if the National Assembly passes a vote of no confidence in the minority ruling party’s cabinet or rejects the budget bill.

When asked whether he would dissolve the House of Representatives if the no-confidence motion against the Cabinet is passed on this day, Prime Minister Ishiba said, “The Japanese Constitution stipulates that if the House of Representatives is not dissolved, the entire cabinet must resign. In this situation, if the Cabinet determines that the Cabinet is right and the National Assembly is wrong, it is natural to ask the people, who are sovereign, whether they trust them, and it is in line with the purpose of the Constitution to let the people decide even if the budget bill or a very important bill is rejected,” the Cabinet said. He acknowledged that he would choose to dissolve the House of Representatives if a vote of no confidence passes or the budget bill is rejected.

He also said, “It is not good that voter turnout is steadily dropping,” and added, “I think voting should be mandatory as a member of the National Assembly. “This is something that needs to be carefully discussed within the party,” he said.

Meanwhile, regarding Shinjiro Koizumi (小泉新次郞), who came in third place in the recent Liberal Democratic Party presidential election, he said, “He is a person with extraordinary talent, different from his father. He will become prime minister someday, and we must work hard to achieve that.” .
