On the 11th, the government will announce a discourse by Prime Minister Abe over a new security strategy including the state of the missile defense system, while discussing a new policy to prevent missiles with the ruling party. I will show that I will consider it.
The government will hold an NSC = National Security Council today with Prime Minister Abe and Secretary of State Suga to discuss new security strategies, including the state of the missile defense system, to discuss policies on missile prevention. However, I will announce the discourse of Prime Minister Abe.
Prime Minister Abe said last month, "Is it possible to protect the lives and peaceful lives of the people simply by improving their interception capabilities?" In the discourse, North Korea's ballistic missile capabilities are improving. Based on this, we are considering a new policy to stop missiles.
On the other hand, the alternative measures that received the abandonment of the new interception missile system "Aegis Ashore" in Yamaguchi and Akita prefectures did not show a specific direction in the discourse, but showed the measures that should be taken by the end of the year. I will include it.
On top of that, we will show that we will consider each of them in consultation with the ruling party.
The Liberal Democratic Party has recommended that the government consider and draw conclusions regarding the new security strategy, including possession of "the ability to prevent ballistic missiles even within the other territory," while the Komeito has a defense force. He is cautious about changing the traditional government policy, which has limited maintenance to the minimum necessary.
