TOKYO -- Japan's Self-Defense Forces currently cannot maintain the country's security in the face of evolving regional and global challenges, warned Gen. Yoshihide Yoshida, chief of staff of the Joint Staff, in an interview with Nikkei.
Yoshida, who became the country's top uniformed officer earlier this year, outlined the importance of bolstering the SDF's capabilities, including through coordination with Japan's partners and the private sector.
