Washington pressures Japan gears up for more defense spending
Japan is considering expanding its military spending to increase defense allocations as part of efforts to bring it closer to a level equivalent to 3.5% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP), according to informed government sources. The move aims to include items such as artificial intelligence, satellites, research and development, and infrastructure within defense costs, although the government has not yet made a final decision regarding the level of expenditure. This initiative comes amid external pressures from the United States to boost military spending, amidst financial constraints and growing budget demands, with expenditures expected to reach approximately 24 trillion yen annually compared to the current 9 trillion yen.
