If you're gonna listen to any speech about #Ukraine 🇺🇦, let it be this one.

The Kenya ambassador to the UNSC perfectly explains how people across Africa understand Ukraine, and what the Kremlin's acts of aggression mean in our post-colonial world.

Four-horse race confirmed for #Japan’s LDP leadership contest, as Noda Seiko clears 20 nominations ahead of official campaign launch tomorrow, joining Kono Taro, Kishida Fumio and Takaichi Sanae to the political race for 100th #PrimeMinister of Japan. Two women in the race.

JUST IN: Japan PM Suga Yoshihide informs party he will not seek re-lection for the leadership...

[Masa G @massa_mannen]

Jiji writes PM is confiding to his colleagues the possibility to freeze party leasership race by calling a snap election.

菅首相が９月中旬に衆院を解散し、自民党総裁選を先送りすることもあり得ると周辺に漏らしていることが分かった https://t.co/PZVtYgRq0l

[Masa G @massa_mannen]

And Mainichi exclusively reports Suga is willing to call early #generalelection in two weeks, aiming for 17 Oct as polling day. Hard to believe...

#Japan PM Suga to reshuffle his cabinet and frontbench next Monday, ahead of LDP leadership election late Sep, and general election to be scheduled by mid-October. I’m not #JapanesePolitics is doomed to be fluid at the end of August...

Proud of the boys risking their lives in what would be JSDF’s most dangerous operations so far, to save our friends trapped in Afghanistan... Godspeed.

[Japan Ministry of Defense/Self-Defense Forces @ModJapan_en]

Taking account of the recent deterioration in security situation in Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, JMOD/JSDF today received a request from Minister for Foreign Affairs ad interim to transport Japanese nationals, etc. from Afghanistan.

Although NHK’s exit poll says 20% of LDP votes have gone to incumbent Hayashi, my maths says the progressive candidate still won’t be caught in these three wards even if combined with the votes for Okonogi. Yellow light for Suga’s re-election to the Parliament ahead of #GE2021...

More bad news for PM on Yokohama mayoral election: The LDP-endorsed candidate has ended as runner-up in Nishi, Minami and Konan wards which consists Suga’s constituency...

[Masa G @massa_mannen]

I mean, the public broadcaster and other media calling the defeat of the LDP-endorsed candidate at PM’s constituency’s mayor race as the polls close, that’s a humiliation... Can’t be worse...

[Masa G @massa_mannen]

Losing the mayor election in his home constituency, this could be checkmate for Suga... Uncertain weeks ahead of PM and LDP, as the party awaits leadership election next month, and general election within three months.
