Japan to propose nuclear submarine fleet in revised security strategy

Japan is expected to propose acquiring nuclear-powered submarines in revised security documents due later this year, aiming to spark debate and address public concerns. Analysts note growing recognition of worsening regional rivalries, though domestic pushback is anticipated given Japan's unique history as the only nation attacked with nuclear weapons. This marks a significant potential shift in Japan's defense posture, though it remains an initial proposal with uncertain prospects.
