Diana DeGette (D-CO), co-chair of the Congressional Study Group on Japan, released the following statement in support of Japan’s announcement today that it plans to nearly double its defense spending over the next five years in response to changing security dynamics in the region: “Today’s announcement marks the beginning of a new era in the longstanding partnership between the United States and Japan. For many years, Japan has been one of our nation’s closest allies. By nearly doubling its defense capabilities in the coming years, Japan will be more fully able to engage in the fight to ensure stability in the region and defend democracy around the globe.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T03:32:05Z |
