Japan imports most of its fossil fuels, still depending on Russia for 9% of LNG needs (Australia supplies about 40%). For uranium, Japan looks to Australia, Canada & Kazakhstan.
OTOH a 2022 paper from ANU claimed "Japan has 14 times more solar and offshore wind resources than needed to supply 100% renewable electricity".
So unspoken reasons for Japan's leaders needing excuses for expanding nuclear🤔
