Thank you very much.<br \/>\nMarking the UN\u2019s 80th anniversary, Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres said the UN is \u2018a living promise that protects people across borders, continents, and generations\u2019\u2014and I could not agree more.<br \/>\nThese ideals are embedded in Japan\u2019s postwar Constitution, and as legislators we must do our utmost to realize them in society.<br \/>\nWith that, I would like to ask Mr. Chatterjee: from the standpoint of multilateralism, what role should Japan play in Asia?<br \/>\nI believe ASEAN\u2019s AIPA is crucial for building peace in the region, and Japan should actively participate. Moreover, it is essential to build a regional peace framework that includes China. I would welcome your views.\u201d Three years later it adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Akira Koike endorsed the view of the UN as a \u201cliving promise that prot&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":20996,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21035","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"3.0.2","language":"en","enabled_languages":["ja","en","fr"],"languages":{"ja":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"en":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"fr":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false}}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21035"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21035"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21035\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21037,"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21035\/revisions\/21037"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20996"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21035"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21035"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jacgg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21035"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
