He stated, gI will adhere to my election promise.h On the U.S. Marine Corps Futenma Air Station issue, Shii pointed said, gThe most reasonable solution is an unconditional removal of the Futenma base. The government must negotiate with the United States from this position.h Ishimine said, gRight. It is wrong if a solution in one place takes a toll on another place.h |
