AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Nuclear Policy Debate: Nagasaki marked the 81st anniversary of the U.S. atomic bombing with renewed calls for Japan to stick to its Three Non-Nuclear Principles, as Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s speech stopped short of a firm future pledge amid defense-policy revisions. Diplomacy & Memory: UN chief António Guterres urged the world to remember Nagasaki’s victims and survivors, while Cuba’s foreign minister echoed the anniversary with renewed criticism of U.S. nuclear policy. Japan-Australia Friction: Australia’s PM Anthony Albanese faced backlash over “melons” remarks about Japan’s leader, with Tokyo’s former ambassador calling it insulting and a minister defending the comments as a misunderstanding. Disaster Response: Nintendo said it will offer free repairs for products damaged in Japan’s Kumamoto earthquake, with requests accepted until Feb. 1, 2027. Markets & FX: Japan and the U.S. signaled readiness to intervene again to support a stronger yen, pointing to carry-trade-driven moves. Tech & Transport: JR East plans a new Shinkansen inspection train (“Soar”) for fiscal 2029, while Japan’s nuclear debate continues to rattle pacifists.
