The Restoration Political Party - New Wind (維新政党・新風, Ishin Seitō Shimpū) is a minor right Japanese patriot party. The ideas they promote include using the armed forces to defend Japan and the promotion of the Japanese emperor as someone that is higher than any other authority.

However it also invited to one of their discussions Kimura Mitsuhiro of another extreme right group Issuikai (一水会). Kimura made friends with politicians like Jean Marie Le Pen.^[1]^[2] One of Jean Marie Le Pen's rallies in France was discussed in one of Restoration Political Party New Wind's magazines.^[3]
