The bill expanding the scope of military activities of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces is likely to change the geopolitical situation in the whole Asia-Pacific Region, experts said.
In Japan, a recent Kyodo poll has revealed that 46.4 percent of the population is against the political course conducted under Shinzo Abe’s cabinet, with 43.2 percent supporting it.
What is more, the number of supporters may dramatically drop due to a number of national scandals provoked by Abe’s push to pass a bill expanding the scope of activities of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces.
Despite strong parliamentary opposition and protests across the country, the bill is likely to be approved by the parliament.
For the first time since the end of World War II, the bill may authorize the Japanese military to take part in overseas combat missions.
