Haruko Arimura (有村 治子, Arimura Haruko, born 21 September 1970) is a Japanese politician of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), a member of the House of Councillors in the Diet of Japan. She is a descendant of Arimura Tsugizaemon, the ringleader of the Sakuradamon Incident, and Togo Heihachiro, the admiral of the Russo-Japanese War.

Arimura's views on comfort women, military prostitutes during World War II, have been criticized.[1] Arimura supports the views of Japanologist J. Mark Ramseyer on comfort women.[2]
