JAPAN will revise its defense policy and weapons purchase plan by December, the Yomiuri newspaper said yesterday, as Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's new government grapples with heightened tensions with neighbors China and North and South Korea.
Japan's current defense policy calls for cuts in the budget and army head count, but Abe wants to boost spending and personnel.
Abe, 58, led his Liberal Democratic Party to victory last month partly on a nationalist platform, saying he wanted to loosen the limits of Japan's 1947 pacifist constitution on the military.
