Japan is at a turning point as the nation recently held a snap election that saw a huge gain for the right-leaning, Trump-endorsed Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi. Ms. Takaichi’s Liberal Democratic Party won a historic victory, securing a rare supermajority in the 465-member House of Representatives, explains Senator Sen Yamanaka to The New American’s Alex Newman on Conversations That Matter.
The win illustrates the will of the Japanese people to take a harder stand against the Communist Chinese Party and mass migration, but work remains to educate the Japanese people about the globalist threat posed by the United Nations and so-called “multilateral” institutions.
Senator Yamanaka, the Chairman of the Internal Affairs Committee and a leader in the anti-globalist Sanseito Party, was also a close friend to Charlie Kirk, hosting Kirk in Japan just three days before he was assassinated on September 10, 2025. In this fascinating conversation, Yamanaka recalls Kirk’s visit to Japan, how the Japanese people embraced Kirk’s message, and discusses his new book, Charlie Kirk’s Final Message to the Japanese: What He Left to the World and the Japanese.
