与野党党首、１９日に会談　立民、不信任案最終判断へ

　石破茂首相は１９日、与野党６党の党首と国会内で会談し、カナダでの日米首脳会談で関税交渉が合意に至らなかったと報告する。今国会の会期末は２２日に迫っており、立憲民主党の野田佳彦代表は会談を踏まえて内閣不信任決議案提出の是非を最終判断する。立民内では中東情勢の緊迫化も受け、提出見送り論が強まっている。
　与野党党首会談はカナダ出発前の１２日に続くもので、１９日昼すぎから行われる。首相は「日米双方が一致しない点が残っている」として閣僚協議を続ける方針を説明し、理解を求める考えだ。（2025/06/18-20:35）

Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan chief Yoshihiko Noda is expected to make a final decision on whether to submit a no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba's cabinet after attending a meeting of party leaders, including Ishiba, on Thursday.
   There are growing calls within the main opposition party to forgo submitting the motion, due partly to the deteriorating situation in the Middle East.
   Ishiba, president of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, is set to meet with Noda and four other party leaders around noon on Thursday to report his failure to reach a tariff deal with U.S. President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the Group of Seven summit in Canada earlier this week. The prime minister is expected to seek understanding for his government's plan to continue ministerial-level negotiations as the two countries remain apart on some issues.
   Believing that the United States' high tariff policy constitutes a national crisis for Japan, Noda has indicated that he will consider the progress of the negotiations before deciding whether to submit a no-confidence motion.
   Now that the Japan-U.S. negotiations are set to continue, more CDP members are cautious about submitting a no-confidence motion, saying that there should not be a political vacuum in Tokyo, also amid the Iran-Israel conflict.
