The LDP-led coalition in the government shall not lose its majority in the Lower house. But, the decreasing popularity of Suga can become a challenge for his successor.

The decision to delay the domestic travel problem became a point of criticism for the Prime Minister. Because it is an important reason behind the spread of the covid-19 in the country.
