Statement on the YWCA Week without Violence.
One of our core concerns regarding violence against women
is the issue of military sexual slavery by the Japanese military
during the World War II. In this statement, we reiterate our
commitment to resolving this issue, and our protests against
politicians and officials who deny and attempt to revise the
historical reality. We believe that our Government should sincerely
face its own responsiblity and take necessary measures to
compensate for the damages it has inflicted on the people around the
world.
