Japanese atomic-bomb survivors are alarmed by political discussions on revising Japan's Three Non-Nuclear Principles, which commit the country to not possessing, producing, or allowing nuclear weapons on its soil. The government is currently assessing participation in the upcoming review conference of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, which Japan has not signed.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Japan's revisiting of its non-nuclear stance creates uncertainty for you in security and disarmament sectors; this could open new policy windows or tighten constraints this month. Prepare for shifting government priorities that might affect funding and partnerships tied to nuclear safety and advocacy.
