๐Ÿ—ณ๏ธ Japan's Political Gamble: Takaichi Calls Snap Election

Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi just announced she's dissolving parliament on January 23, triggering Japan's shortest postwar campaign periodโ€”just 16 days until voting on February 8.

๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต She's betting her political future on securing public backing for a reshuffled coalition (now with Ishin no Kai, not Komeito) and pushing through assertive fiscal and security policies. With her ruling bloc holding a razor-thin majority and opposition forces consolidating, this high-stakes election could reshape Japan's political landscape.

Will voters give her the mandate she's seeking?

๐Ÿšจ Diplomatic Detour: Vance Skips Munich After Last Year's Firestorm

US Vice President JD Vance won't attend the 2026 Munich Security Conference in February, one year after his controversial speech sparked backlash from European allies.

๐ŸŽค In 2025, Vance warned that Europe's biggest threat came "from within"โ€”citing censorship and immigrationโ€”rather than from Russia or China, drawing sharp criticism from German leaders.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio will lead the US delegation instead, marking a shift in how the Trump administration engages with European security partners.
