According to a report by Japan's Kyodo News Agency on the 17th, the Japanese government is considering raising funds for defense costs that are expected to continue to expand by further increasing corporate taxes on companies. The media said the plan might trigger opposition from the economic community. The report said that the Japanese government is in the process of revising the “Three Security Documents”. Among them, a new round of the “Defense Force Preparation Plan” covering the 2027-2031 fiscal year proposes to purchase large quantities of drones, increase ammunition and missile reserves, and prepare for long-term combat. The report quoted senior Japanese government sources as saying that if estimates are made according to the Ministry of Defense's requirements, Japan's total defense spending “may expand to 70 trillion to 80 trillion yen” in the next 5 years.
