Tokyo is intently monitoring the state of affairs in South Korea following President Yoon Suk Yeol’s short-term declaration of emergency martial regulation, with the political turmoil in Seoul anticipated to have an effect on the enhancing relations between Japan and the neighboring nation.
Some Japanese authorities officers have voiced considerations about the way forward for the Yoon administration because the political confusion in South Korea is anticipated to proceed in the interim, though the martial regulation order was lifted solely about six hours after it was issued.
Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba instructed reporters Wednesday that he’s rigorously watching the state of affairs in South Korea “with particular and severe consideration.”
