> At least 128 local assemblies in 36 Japanese prefectures have submitted written opinions to the Diet since Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi took office last October. The submissions call on the government to maintain Japan’s Three Non-Nuclear Principles. The appeals show local bodies pressing the national government on its nuclear policy stance.
