National people Mr. Tamaki announces the split party. Constitutional confluence promotion group and cautious group.

National Democratic Party representative Yuichiro Tamaki announced at a press conference on the 11th that he would join the Constitutional Democratic Party, and announced that he would split the party due to the lack of pros and cons. Next week, we will hold a general meeting of both members of the House of Representatives for discussion. If the split party is approved, a procedure to dissolve the party will be taken, and a new party will be formed by a confluence promotion group and a cautious group. Mr. Tamaki has announced that he will not participate in the merger with the constitution.

              At a press conference, Mr. Tamaki explained that he agrees with the terms of the confluence gathered between the secretary generals and the chairpersons of the two parties. Based on the spread of the new coronavirus, "prolonging negotiations forever will not benefit the people," he said. After that, he said, "We have come to the conclusion that the only people who can join or cannot join are the split parties to proceed with things in a satisfactory manner." However, Kenta Izumi, Chairman of the Government, revealed at a subsequent meeting that the board of directors had not acknowledged Mr. Tamaki's proposal for a branch party. Coordination within the party may be difficult.

Mr. Tamaki said, "Because it is a political party, we cannot give up the agreement of the policies as long as it is a political party. No party talks were held, and there was no agreement on basic policies such as consumption tax cuts." He pointed out, "Even if people with different ideas and policies gather together to form a party, they will not be able to use their past reflections." He emphasized his policy of becoming a "reform center" political party.

Regarding the joint talks, negotiations in earnest centered on the secretary-generals of both parties after the proposal of the merger by the constitution on July 15. Initially there was a confrontation over the party name, but the constitutional side made a concession by a decision by the voting method that Mr. The party's constitutional bill, the draft rules, and the representative election rules were compiled by the secretaries-general of both parties, but Mr. Tamaki was particular about the agreement on basic policies such as consumption tax reduction and the Constitution, and was criticized by the party members who are willing to join the party. There was a loud voice.
