International Affairs 1981-11-09 1982-12-21 Resolution agreed to in Senate with an amendment and an amended preamble by Voice Vote. Senate Sen. Levin, Carl [D-MI] MI D L000261 62 (Measure passed Senate, amended) Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the United States and Japan should exert maximum efforts to resist challenges to security and democracy in Asia; (2) U.S. and Japanese defense efforts should be governed by an assessment of the mutual threat confronting them; (3) Japan should accelerate its current efforts to make a greater contribution to its own defense; (4) Japan should immediately increase its annual defense spending to the levels required for its forces to deploy fully by 1990, including the capability to defend its sealanes of communication; (5) this upgrading of Japan's self-defense capability can and should be achieved through the deployment of forces and weapons that would not raise concerns among other Asian nations; (6) Japan should assume a significantly larger share of the total annual overall operating costs of the U.S. forces in Japan and should contribute to meeting U.S. costs incurred in protecting Japan's security interests in the Pacific Ocean region; and (7) the Senate would welcome an assessment by the Japanese Diet of security challenges in the Pacific and of appropriate U.S. and allied responses. 2025-01-14T19:00:46Z
