Sanae Takaichi has served as Japan’s prime minister and LDP president since October 2025. In February 2026 she called and won a snap lower-house election that delivered the LDP a postwar-record 316 seats and a two-thirds supermajority, allowing her to form a stable coalition with the Japan Innovation Party and override upper-house resistance on key legislation. Recent activity includes multiple bilateral summits and domestic policy implementation through mid-June 2026, with approval ratings remaining in the 50-60 percent range despite modest softening. These factors—secure parliamentary control, recent electoral mandate, and absence of major destabilizing events—underpin trader consensus that removal before year-end is unlikely.
