No giving up

I wonder if Korea ever gets tired of this?

[韓国] 韓国外務省は30日、日本による朝鮮 半島統治時代の「慰安婦」に関する報道 官声明を発表し、韓国が要請している協 議に日本側が応じていないことに「深い 遺憾を表明する」とした。日本側に「歴 史的な過ちを勇気を持って直視」し、元 慰安婦の「痛みを癒やせる責任ある行動 を示すべきだ」と主張した。

声明は元慰安婦の対日請求権問題につ いて、韓国政府が措置を講じてこなかっ たことを「違憲」とした韓国憲法裁判決 から2年となるのを機に出された。この 間、韓国側は日本政府に対し、継続的に 協議に応じるよう要求してきたと強調し た。(ソウル 加藤達也)

South Korean Foreign Ministry on claims of comfort women, “Regrettable”

The South Korean Foreign Ministry made a public statement regarding the period of Japanese rule over the Korean peninsula and the “comfort women,” saying that “it is extremely regrettable” that Japan would not respond to a request from South Korea for a discussion. It called on Japan to “have courage and take a hard look at its past mistakes” and that it “must take action to heal the pain” of the comfort women.

The statement was put out on the 2 nd anniversary of the South Korean Constitutional Court judgment that it was “unconstitutional” that the South Korean government had not taken measures concerning the problem of claims against Japan by former comfort women. During this time, South Korea has made continual requests for discussions with Japan.
