Japanese rally outside PM residence to protest relaxed arms export control

Tokyo, Mar 26 (UNI) Many Japanese protesters, amid heavy rainfall, gathered on Tuesday in front of the prime minister's residence to rally against the government's eased defense equipment transfer rules and further relaxation of arms export control.

Seen as a significant defense policy shift and another step contrary to the country's pacifist constitution, the Japanese government decided at a cabinet meeting on Tuesday to lift the ban on exporting the next-generation fighter jets set to be jointly developed with Britain and Italy to third countries.
