Japan's Snap Election, Gaza Humanitarian Crisis, North Korean Troops in Kursk

from World Review with Ivo Daalder · host Ivo Daalder

Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party faced a major setback in Sunday's snap elections after failing to obtain a majority of seats in the Lower House for the first time in 15 years. How will this shocking parliamentary loss affect the long-standing party, and what will it mean for Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba’s future? Then, aid entering Gaza is at its lowest since the start of the war, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis in the region. Plus, North Korea has sent about 10,000 troops to the Kursk region of Russia. As they prepare to fight against Ukraine, what does this deployment mean for geopolitics? And what does North Korea get out of joining Russia in the war? Yasmeen Abutaleb, Ken Moriyasu, and Anton La Guardia join World Review with Ivo Daalder to dive into these issues. Get full access to America Abroad at ivodaalder.substack.com/subscribe
