中新社东京5月20日电 (记者 朱晨曦)日本民众19日傍晚在位于东京的国会议事堂前集会，抗议高市早苗政府的修宪企图以及一系列扩军备武动向。
据组织方介绍，约1万人参加了集会。在现场，抗议者手举写有“停止修宪和扩军”“不得破坏宪法第九条”等字样的标语牌，高喊“不需要扩军备战的法律”“停止部署导弹”等口号，集体朗读日本宪法第九条，重申对和平理念的坚守。

1947年施行的日本宪法因其第九条规定日本永远放弃以国权发动的战争、武力威胁或武力行使作为解决国际争端的手段，而被称为和平宪法。高市和日本右翼势力长期以来企图修改宪法第九条。高市今年多次表达修宪意愿，引发日本各界担忧。
日本社民党干事长、参议院议员拉沙尔石井在集会现场表示，高市政府推动的设立“国家情报局”相关法案在众议院通过后，目前已移交参议院进行表决。此外，政府还在推进“防止间谍法”的立法工作。这些政策有可能严重侵害民众的基本权利，压制国内反战声音，令人担忧。

在市民发言环节中，一位女高中教师对高市政府的修宪企图批评道：“我绝不想让任何孩子走上战场。自民党的修宪方案旨在赋予国家发动战争的自由，而非保障个人和平生活的自由。”(完)
