岸田首相、在職１０００日　戦後８人目、浮揚の兆しなく

　岸田文雄首相の在職日数が２９日で１０００日を迎えた。戦後８人目の大台達成だが、内閣支持率は依然低迷。次期衆院選を控えて危機感を強める自民党内では「岸田離れ」が加速する。さらなる記録更新には、９月に想定される党総裁選がハードルとなるが、政権浮揚の兆しはなく、再選に向けた視界は不良だ。
　首相は２８日、首相官邸で記者団に「毎日毎日、緊張感の中で課題に取り組んだ。この積み重ねが今日だ」と振り返った。党総裁選の対応については「結果を出すことに全力で取り組んでいる。それ以上のことは今、考えていない」と述べるにとどめた。
　戦後の首相は計３５人。在職日数のトップは安倍晋三氏で、３１８８日は戦前も含めた憲政史上最長だ。沖縄返還を実現した佐藤栄作氏が２７９８日、日米安全保障条約締結や憲法制定を手掛けた吉田茂氏が２６１６日で続く。（2024/06/29-00:06）

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida marked 1,000 days in office on Saturday, becoming the country's eighth prime minister to reach the milestone since the end of World War II.
   To extend his tenure further, Kishida needs to win the ruling Liberal Democratic Party's upcoming leadership election, but there are no clear prospects for his re-election as LDP president as his cabinet's approval ratings remain sluggish, fueling a sense of crisis within the party over the next general election.
   "I have been working on challenges day after day with a sense of tension," Kishida told reporters at the prime minister's office on Friday. "This accumulation has led to today."
   Asked whether he plans to run in the LDP leadership race, Kishida said: "I'm doing my best to produce results, and I'm not thinking about anything beyond that now."
   In the history of Japan's constitutional government, Shinzo Abe was the longest-serving prime minister with a total of 3,188 days in office, followed by Eisaku Sato with 2,798 days and Shigeru Yoshida with 2,616 days.
