Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida was questioned on Wednesday March 13 in Parliament about a rally organized by members of his party. In images broadcast by some media of the event held last November in Wakayama (West), we could see women appearing to be dressed in bikinis sitting on the participants' knees.

One of the organizers, Tetsuya Kawabata, sought to justify the event by assuring that the dancers had been invited "after studying different points of view, in particular to find out if it corresponded to the theme of diversity"
