日本の外交青書「慰安婦問題は解決済み」に…元慰安婦支援団体「卑劣な責任回避」=韓国
Japan's diplomatic blue book states ”comfort women issue has been resolved”...Former comfort women support group calls it ”despicable evasion of responsibility” = South Korea
In response to the Japanese government's statement in the Diplomatic Bluebook that the "comfort women issue has been resolved," the Korean former comfort women support group "Justice Memory Solidarity" said, "This is a completely illogical and despicable accusation.
On the 17th, the Korean Council for Justice and Remembrance for the Issues of Military Sexual Slavery issued a statement stating, "The Japanese government has failed to provide an official apology or legal compensation, which not only South Korea but also many victims across the Asia-Pacific region have been calling for.
"They have consistently ignored the issue. They are refusing to acknowledge the forced nature of the system, erasing the criminal history of Japanese military sexual slavery, and pressuring the South Korean government to 'comply with the 2015 Korea-Japan agreement.'"
He continued, "Instead of publishing a diplomatic bluebook filled with lies that distort history and shift the responsibility onto victimized countries, we should start now to work toward international cooperation.
They should uphold their responsibility to society and take legal responsibility as the perpetrator country, including providing an official apology and legal compensation to the victims as the South Korean court has ruled."
Every April, the Japanese government publishes the Diplomatic Bluebook, a white paper on its diplomatic activities.
The Diplomatic Bluebook released this year also stated that "through the 2015 Japan-Korea agreement, the comfort women issue was resolved finally and irreversibly.
In addition, the government has maintained its claim that the settlement was confirmed. In addition, in the lawsuits filed by former comfort women against Japan seeking damages, the government ruled in favor of the plaintiffs in January 2021 and November 2023.
We cannot accept the decision of the Korean judiciary."
