Basic stance for Policy
Toward a sustainable society where people can live securely and in peace
It is essential to have a social order where people can live peacefully and securely. Military weapons, including those capable of mass destruction, consumer products capable of being converted into weapons, or the technology to develop them, should not fall into the hands of terrorists or countries that disregard international social norms.
Therefore, most countries have ratified treaties regulating the use of weapons themselves to safeguard world peace. They have also created international export control frameworks, with each country taking responsibility for its efforts. That is Security Trade Control.
Japan participates in all five international export control regimes, and security trade controls are implemented following the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Law. The 海角社区Group is headquartered in Japan.
