日本首相高市早苗因任命的农林水产大臣梁和生的不当言论和涉嫌违反《公职选举法》而面临政治困境。1 高市最初对此事处理态度模糊,在8日曾表示"希望梁和生履行职责",1 但到13日在众院预算委员会上的立场发生转变,表示"如果存在违法性,我不会犹豫"。1 在野党随后提交了针对梁和生的问责决议案,对政权形成施压。1
日本专家对此事件的后续发展表达了悲观看法。1 专家指出,无论梁和生最终是否辞职,高市政权都将遭受沉重打击,并警告"梁和生辞职时间拖得越久,高市与自民党的支持率就越容易下滑"。1 有专家更直言"即便现在让其辞职,也为时已晚",表明高市的应对迟缓已经造成了难以挽回的损害。1 值得注意的是,高市上台后至今还没有阁僚因丑闻而辞职的例子。1
Prime Minister Takamichi has found herself in political turmoil following inappropriate remarks and alleged electoral law violations by Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Minister Ryo Kazuo, whom she appointed.1 Initially resisting calls for the minister's removal, Takamichi shifted her position on October 13 during a House Budget Committee session, stating: "If there is illegality, I will not hesitate."1 This marked a reversal from her earlier stance on October 8, when she expressed hope that Kazuo would fulfill his duties.1
The opposition parties have intensified pressure by submitting a censure motion against Kazuo.1 Japanese experts warn that regardless of whether Kazuo ultimately resigns, Takamichi's administration will suffer significant political damage.1 One analyst noted that the longer Kazuo remains in office, the more the approval ratings of both Takamichi and the ruling Liberal Democratic Party will decline.1 Experts contend that "even if he steps down now, it is already too late" and that "no matter what, Takamichi's administration will be severely damaged."1 Notably, since Takamichi took office, no cabinet member has resigned due to scandal, making this situation particularly consequential for her government's credibility.1
