Abstract

Positive neutrality is the party's fundamental standpoint in its struggle for peace and the relaxation of tension. It means nonalignment, that is, non-participation in the military blocs of East or West, with the aim of eventually dissolving these blocs; thus it is neutrality on a military plane. In our case such a position is backed up by our Constitution, which prohibits armaments or war, and is supported by the people's desire for peace. We who aim at socialism for Japan face the unfortunate fact that Japan has concluded a military alliance with America, based on the new Security Treaty, and that thus the Soviet Union and Communist China are hostile to her. For us, the only way to achieve Japan's peace, security and independence, is to end the military alliance with America, and to restore stable and normal relations with the Soviet Union and Communist China; this is also a precondition for the achievement of socialism.1
