Japanese policy analyst: Takaichi's Taiwan strategy is her most dangerous move yet

01:15

Shigeaki Koga, a former official at Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, describes Sanae Takaichi as strong-willed and attention-seeking. He warns that her expected right-leaning, hardline policies, including possible visits to Yasukuni Shrine, could further strain relations with China and the Republic of Korea. Koga argues that her approach to the Taiwan question is the most risky and consequential choice she faces, with potentially serious implications for regional stability.
