What is collective self-defence?

Japan’s constitution bars it from using force to resolve conflicts except in cases of self-defence. According to Kyodo news agency, the proposed bills would revise laws such that Japan’s military would be able to mobilise overseas when these three conditions are met:

• when a close ally is attacked and the result threatens Japan’s survival

• when there is no other appropriate means to repel the attack and protect Japan provided that the military uses only minimum force
