Well Abe threw the leadership idea out the window for me.
What Japan does have is they are very technologically advanced, something that is helping them combat their demographic woes. No nation outside the US can compete with Japan on this end of things.
The EU has that problem (in addition to the leadership) also. They are not the most advanced region technologically.

Nobody's perfect. That was bound to happen sooner or later, it just turned out to be with him.
As for Europe, it is doomed-- EU or no EU.
Technology is a major factor for both Japan and the United States. The weakness for both nations is the supply chain, and Japan would suffer worse from supply chain woes than the United states. Resources and raw materials would still need to be imported, but the imports should be reduced with a greater native capacity to manufacture the components needed to manufacture goods and technolical advances.
