Japan PM Sanae Takaichi Reshuffles Cabinet, Retains Key Ministers Amid Challenges
Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi reshuffled her Cabinet to address declining popularity while maintaining key ministers to ensure policy continuity and strong US ties. She retained Defence Minister Shinjiro Koizumi, Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi, Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama, Economy Minister Minoru Kiuchi, and Trade Minister Ryosei Akazawa. The reshuffle also preserved leadership roles within the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, reflecting efforts to balance internal party dynamics amid external pressures from the US on defense spending and economic policies.
