A recent poll in Japan shows that more than half of the respondents oppose the decision by the Katsunobu Kuma government to lift the ban on the export of lethal weapons.
A poll released by Japan's Kyodo News Agency on Sunday (May 17th) showed that 57.2% of the respondents opposed the lifting of restrictions on the export of lethal weapons, while 37.1% were in favor of it.
A poll conducted by NHK from the 8th to the 10th of this month showed that 52% of the respondents opposed the Japanese government's principle of allowing the export of lethal weapons, while 35% were in favor of it.
On April 21st, the Japanese government passed a cabinet resolution, completing the revision of the "Three Principles for Defense Equipment Transfer" and its application guidelines. It lifted the previous restriction of limiting weapons exports to only five non-combat-related categories, and in principle, allowed the export of finished weapons, including lethal weapons. This move has continued to trigger protests from the public in Japan.
