00:00Protesters in Japan are demanding that Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takeishi immediately retract
00:05her statements about the Chinese region of Taiwan.
00:09The protest took place in front of Kyoto City Hall.
00:13Protesters chanted slogans such as Taiwan should not be used as an excuse to start a
00:17war and demanding that Takeishi immediately retract her statements about military intervention
00:24under the pretext of the so-called Taiwan Contingency.
00:27The Japanese government invests a large part of its budget in areas related to warfare.
00:33This in the opinion of the protesters represents a contradiction between military expansion
00:38and the real needs of the population.
