The claim

高市首相が外国人を大量に国外退去させる省庁を設立

Original review summary

The review found no evidence that Takaichi announced a new ministry or mass deportations of foreigners. It says she appointed a minister responsible for foreigner-related policy and called for the government to respond firmly to some violations, while also noting that foreign workers are needed in some sectors.[S1]

Additional context

The video in the claim showed Minister Kimi Onoda, not Takaichi, and contained no statements about mass deportations or establishing a ministry. [S1]

In her October 24, 2025 policy speech, Takaichi said the government would strengthen its coordinating function and appoint a minister; the review notes she also said foreign workers are needed in some fields. [S1]
