Japan’s government has signaled no plans for systematic declassification of UAP files in 2026. Following Pentagon releases of UAP materials under the PURSUE program in May through August—including sightings near Japanese airspace—Chief Cabinet Secretary Minoru Kihara stated that Tokyo analyzes such incidents with interest and coordinates with allies but will handle any domestic disclosures only on a narrow, case-by-case basis after weighing risks to intelligence methods. No centralized Cabinet-level mandate, scheduled tranches, or policy shift toward broad release has emerged, and Japan’s new National Intelligence Bureau has prioritized internal coordination over public transparency. Traders therefore assign high probability to no new previously non-public files being declassified by year-end.
