Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's erroneous remarks and the Japanese government's moves to expand military armaments have drawn strong criticism in Japan. Former UNESCO staff member Akemi Yonemura stated that Takaichi's inappropriate comments are clear evidence that the military-industrial complex manipulates policy and exploits security issues to make money. She emphasized that war must never become a tool for profit, and that national resources should be directed toward education, social welfare and other areas that truly impact people's lives.
