In stunning move, Japanese Prime Minister Suga says he won't seek another term

Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga said Friday he won't run for his ruling party's leadership, effectively ending his tenure and throwing wide open the race for the next premier.

The shocking decision after just a year in office comes with Suga's approval ratings at an all-time low over his government's handling of the response to the coronavirus pandemic. And it suggests a possible return to political instability for Japan, which cycled through prime ministers regularly before the lengthy tenure of Suga's predecessor, Shinzo Abe.
