The results show a deviation with respect to the SM predictions that is not yet statistically significant (2.6 sigma for muons and 1.1 sigma for electrons) but coherent with other measurements of the muonic channel and with other observables pointing to the same type of asymmetry between muons and electrons.

If LHCb confirms with high significance the measurement by Belle there will be a new signal of New Physics of non universal lepton flavour violation type. Simultaneously all SM attempts to try to explain the anomaly in the observable P5’ by means of long distance charm effects will be proven to be wrong. Both Belle II and LHCb will be the major players in the following years able to arrive to a firm conclusion if Nature violates lepton flavour universality or not.
