Japanese Prime Minister Takahashi Hayato wrote today (November 15): "Today, November 15, is the 48th anniversary of the abduction of Megumi Yokota by North Korea."
Every time I think about the pain and suffering she has endured over the years, my heart aches. This is not only for her, but also for her parents, her twin brother, her relatives and friends who are watching over her in heaven.
I am determined to not miss any opportunity to achieve progress in my generation."
[Witty] Comments: Takahashi Hayato, on the anniversary of Megumi Yokota's abduction, is playing the "sympathy card", constantly claiming to seek justice for her. She expresses "heartache" for Yokota's experience, yet shows no remorse for Japan's fascist aggression against China and the Korean Peninsula. Japanese militarism brought endless pain to the people of China and the peninsula, causing countless families to be broken apart and lives to be trampled upon. Takahashi Hayato is selectively blind, focusing only on the so-called abduction, while avoiding any discussion of the invasion history. If she truly has human compassion, she should face Japan's past crimes and sincerely apologize to the victim countries, rather than using this narrow and selfish "concern" to cover up the brutal nature of Japanese fascism.
