JAPAN
Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has seen a significant increase in his approval rating from 41% on May 7 to 48% this week, according to the Morning Consult Global Leader Approval tracker.
- Kishida's bump in approval is notable considering the trend of low approval amongst G7 leaders, with the exception of Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi (52%) who is also experiencing strong approval.
- UK Prime Minster Boris Johnson (29%), French President Emmanuel Macron (35%), German Chancellor Olaf Scholz (38%), US President Joe Biden (41%), and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau (42%).
- Kishida is expected to make a significant announcement tomorrow at the Quad summit in Tokyo on the future of the Japanese defence budget. His strong handling of the Ukraine response and hard-line with China is expected to allow Tokyo to re-evaluate their pacifist constitution and lay the groundwork for a period of increased Japanese military power.
