Japan - June 18th, 2014

About 5,000 protesters with anti-war signs held rallies in major cities against the ruling Liberal Democratic Party’s intention to change the official government interpretation of the Constitution. This reinterpretation will allow Japan to exercise the right to collective self-defense. They urged the LDP’s coalition partner New Komeito to stand firm against the approval. http://ajw.asahi.com/article/behind_news/social_affairs/AJ201406180040
