Agree

Yes, but only if strong protections for our national resources and workers are enacted with each trade deal

The LDP is likely to agree with this stance to some extent, as they have shown a willingness to negotiate trade deals that include protections for Japanese industries and workers. For example, during the TPP negotiations, Japan sought to protect its agricultural sector and maintain certain tariffs. However, their primary focus remains on promoting economic growth and international relations.
