2 years ago

Prime Minister Fumio Kishida pledges to beef up Japan's naval and military capacity, warning that nations must prepare to face aggressors, and also denouncing North Korea's recent blitz of missile tests, one of which flew over Japan for the first time since 2017 and prompted a rare evacuation warning. He was making his remarks during Japan's international naval fleet review which gathered ships from Japan and 12 other countries -- including Australia, India and the United States -- at Sagami Bay, south of Tokyo.
