TOKYO - The leader of Japan’s main opposition party said on Wednesday he was happy to cooperate with other opposition groups in a July 21 upper house election, but brushed aside calls from a rival party to merge to fight Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s ruling bloc.
“It is impossible for our party to merge with another party. We have welcomed individuals who agree with our policies and we will continue to do so,” he said. The CDPJ was formed after its center-left predecessor split into two main groups in 2017 and outperformed expectations in a lower house election that year.
