Plain-English summary
Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) Japan must live up to its commitment to defend its own air space and sea lanes out to 1,000 nautical miles, and must alter its defense plans to include the purchase of the requisite number of AWACS early warning aircraft and support tankers; and (2) the Department of State should enter into negotiations with Japan leading to the successful assumption by Japan of the 1,000-mile defense mission.
