Abe's military reforms in 2015 allowed for what controversial change?

  • JSDF overseas deployments

  • Nuclear armament

  • Conscription

  • Foreign bases closure

Answer

The controversial change allowed by Abe's military reforms in 2015 was the overseas deployment of Japan's Self-Defense Forces (JSDF). This marked a significant shift in Japan's post-war military policy, which had previously restricted the JSDF's role to self-defense within Japanese territory. The change sparked debate and discussion within Japan and the international community, raising questions about Japan's evolving security posture and its implications for regional and global dynamics.
