Former Supreme Court Justice Kohei Nasu addresses a meeting to examine the government-sponsored security bills in Tokyo on July 9, 2015. Nasu said it is almost impossible to gain public approval for the bills as the government has not been able to clarify the legitimacy of its reinterpretation of the pacifist Constitution to exercise the right to collective self-defense.
