{{Nihongo|'''Toshiki Kaifu'''|海部 俊樹|Kaifu Toshiki|2 January 1931 – 9 January 2022}} was a Japanese politician who served as [[prime minister of Japan]] from 1989 to 1991.

Born in [[Nagoya]], Kaifu graduated from [[Waseda University]] and was first elected to the [[National Diet|Diet]] in 1960 as a member of the [[Liberal Democratic Party (Japan)|Liberal Democratic Party]]. He served as education minister from 1976 to 1977 under [[Takeo Fukuda]], and from 1985 to 1986 under [[Yasuhiro Nakasone]]. In 1989, Kaifu became prime minister after the resignations of the last two premiers, [[Noboru Takeshita]] and [[Sōsuke Uno|Sosuke Uno]], amid various scandals; he was chosen in part because of his clean image. During his tenure, Kaifu worked to improve relations with China and made large financial contributions to the coalition in the [[Gulf War|Persian Gulf War]]. After his attempts at political reform were unsuccessful, Kaifu resigned as prime minister in 1991 and was replaced by [[Kiichi Miyazawa]].

== Early life and education ==
Kaifu was born on 2 January 1931, in [[Nagoya City]], the eldest of six brothers. His family's business Nakamura Photo Studio was established by his grandfather in the [[Meiji (era)|Meiji era]], and was situated next to the [[Matsuzakaya]] flagship department store.<ref name=":0">{{Cite book |last1=Kaifu |first1=Toshiki |url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/931496864 |title=Kaifu Ttoshiki kaisōroku : ware o motte inishie to nasu |last2=海部俊樹 |others=Hiroki Kakimi, 垣見洋樹 |year=2015 |isbn=978-4-931388-95-6 |pages=30–35, 223–224 |publisher=樹林舎 |oclc=931496864}}</ref>

Kaifu took the exam to the [[Aichi Prefectural Asahigaoka Senior High School]], and while of the eleven students who took the test from the same school, nine were accepted and two, including Kaifu, were not. As part of the student labor mobilization during the war, he was placed in a Mitsui Heavy Industry factory where he assembled airplane engine parts day and night. In 1945, he was accepted in the Youth Airman Academy of the [[Imperial Japanese Army]], but the war ended before his planned enrolment in October.<ref name=":0" /> He was then educated at [[Chuo University]] and [[Waseda University]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Akimoto |first=Daisuke |date=14 January 2022 |title=In Memory of 'Kaifu Diplomacy' During the Gulf War Turmoil |url=https://thediplomat.com/2022/01/in-memory-of-kaifu-diplomacy-during-the-gulf-war-turmoil/ |accessdate=16 January 2022 |website=The Diplomat |language=en}}</ref>

On 10 August 1991, Kaifu became the first leader of a major country to make an official visit to China and break China's diplomatic isolation after the [[1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre]].<ref>{{cite news |title=Japanese Prime Minister Meets With China's Communist Leader |url=https://www.apnews.com/09f8feb057f36ea1dc9b44052d34ef1e |access-date=17 April 2019 |work=Associated Press |date=12 August 1991 |archive-date=17 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190417020720/https://www.apnews.com/09f8feb057f36ea1dc9b44052d34ef1e |url-status=dead }}</ref> Kaifu ended Japan's participation in economic sanctions against China and offered $949.9 million in loans and an additional $1.5 million in emergency aid following flood damage in southern China in June and July.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.upi.com/Archives/1991/08/09/Prime-Minister-Toshiki-Kaifu-departs-Saturday-for-Beijing-to/6756681710400/|title=Prime Minister Toshiki Kaifu departs Saturday for Beijing to...|work=UPI|access-date=22 October 2018}}</ref> In 1991 he sent the [[Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force|Maritime Self-Defense Force]] to the [[Persian Gulf]] in the wake of the [[Gulf War]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2022/01/e6e199986d85-ex-japan-pm-kaifu-dies-at-91.html|title = Ex-Japan PM Kaifu, who dispatched SDF to Persian Gulf, dies at 91}}</ref>

Throughout his two Cabinets, Kaifu's faction was too small to push through the reforms he sought, and the continuing repercussions of the [[Sagawa Express]] scandal caused problems.
