We will properly play our role, considering what we can and should do within our legal framework and capabilities. At the moment, we cannot say specifically what we are going to do
Japan's constitution prohibits waging war, allowing the use of force only for self-defense, which limits the country's activities abroad. However, its Self-Defense Forces participate in peacekeeping and anti-piracy missions. Ishiba also praised US President Donald Trump's efforts to establish peace in Ukraine and his negotiations with European leaders.
It is important to achieve the earliest possible ceasefire and a just peace
Later that day, Ishiba joined an online meeting organized by Great Britain, France, and Germany, where he once again emphasized the importance of a quick end to the war and the establishment of stable peace.
