Komeito will begin full-scale discussions this week ahead of revisions to three documents related to defense matters, including the National Security Strategy.
The focus will be on how to adjust the party's previously cautious view on possessing counterattack capabilities in light of the increasingly tense situation in Taiwan and other factors.
The party hopes to reflect its stance in the revisions scheduled for the end of the year through consultations with its ruling coalition partner, the Liberal Democratic Party.
