Published by Sam Flores

While immigration is often floated as a solution to Japan’s shrinking demographic, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is pushing for tougher measures against an inflow of foreigners. Official data showed that the number of births in Japan fell for the 10th straight year in 2025, with a total of 705,809 babies born.
