According to a report by “Nihon Keizai Shimbun” on the 15th, Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae hinted during a defense in the Diet on the 14th that the “Three Security Documents” such as the “National Security Strategy” may be revised at the end of this year to adjust the expressions relating to the “Three Non-Nuclear Principles.” According to reports, in response to a question from Komeito Party member Shinichi Isa at the House Budget Committee meeting on the 14th, Takaichi said that the Japanese government is still adhering to the “Three Non-Nuclear Principles” in terms of policy policy; it is currently proceeding with the revision of the “Three Non-Nuclear Security Documents,” where the specific statement on the “Three Non-Nuclear Principles” “still has room for discussion.” “Nihon Keizai Shimbun” interprets this as saying that although Takaichi may not change the “Three Non-Nuclear Principles” itself, it may adjust the policy statement relating to this principle in the “Three Security Documents.” The “Three Non-Nuclear Principles” means “not possessing, not manufacturing, or transporting nuclear weapons.” Japan's “National Security Strategy” in the “Three Security Documents” clearly states: “The basic policy of adhering to the 'Three Non-Nuclear Principles' will not change in the future.” The report pointed out that before taking office as prime minister, Takaichi had long advocated amending the principle of “not importing nuclear weapons” in the “Three Non-Nuclear Principles.” The Japan Restoration Association, which has formed a ruling coalition with the Liberal Democratic Party, also advocated “research in line with reality” on the “three security documents” proposed in June of this year to amend the “three security documents.” Furthermore, since July of this year, Japan's Minister of Defense, Shinjiro Koizumi, has repeatedly proposed in public that “policies related to nuclear weapons should be discussed without taboos.” This series of developments continues to raise concerns in Japan about changes in the Takaichi government's nuclear policy.
