39 Liberal Democratic Party members punished “Responsible for causing distrust in politics, severe punishment” Prime Minister Kishida. Prime Minister says he has not made any changes to his personal political funds.
"I will take the lead in efforts to restore trust, and in the end I will let the people and party members judge my efforts," he says. "The moral and political responsibility of the party president should also be questioned," says Issei Yamagishi of the Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan.
