Policies
According to its manifesto, the group's goal is to more than double Japan's population to 300 million through making child-rearing easier for mothers and accepting foreigners as workforce. It also aims to change the pacifist Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution in order to increase Japan's economic and military power.[9]
The group identifies itself as "conservative"[10] and is generally considered a right-wing,[11] or a radical right party.[12] The party advocates a nuclear deterrent for Japan,[13] denies that the Nanjing Massacre occurred[14] and has called for China to be expelled from the United Nations Security Council.[15] The party has formed links to the American right, having attended the Conservative Political Action Conference in 2012, and bringing with them members of the Tokyo Tea Party, supporting low tax.[4]
In 2022, the party has expressed sympathy for Russia's position following the Invasion of Ukraine, criticizing the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.[16]
