The ruling party, the Liberal Democratic Party and the People's Party, won the majority of seats in the Japanese parliamentary election held yesterday (July 21). However, it is not enough to secure a two-thirds seats in which the constitutional amendment is possible, and it is not easy for Abe to pledge his constitution.

In the election yesterday, the ruling coalition parties, the Liberal Democratic Party and the People's Party, succeeded in occupying the majority seats.

The Liberal Democratic Party and the Grand National Party won 71 seats, more than half of the 124 seats in the election.

Once we achieved the goals we have outsourced.

However, it failed to secure the constitutional line that had been expected.

The total number of 81 seats, combined with the swearing genders in favor of the amendment, did not reach 85, which is the number of seats available for amendment.

For this reason, Abe's Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) has emerged from a somewhat lackluster mood,

Prime Minister Abe has pledged to make amendments to the Constitution to include the SDF throughout the election campaign.

Instead, the opposition, including the constitutional Democratic Party, which opposed Prime Minister Abe's drive to win the race, was once rated as having succeeded in some degree of defense while retaining the existing seats.

In particular, we have secured a certain level of power in the struggle against constitutional amendments, while protecting the support base by attacking the ruling party due to problems of pension and tax increase.

Japanese opposition parties have also been opposed to retaliatory export controls on South Korea, so the possibility of a trade conflict between Korea and Japan in the extraordinary National Assembly next month will be raised again.
