High City once again provokes South Korea over the Dokdo issue
According to a report by Korean media "Chosun Ilbo (Japanese edition)" on March 13: Japanese Prime Minister Hashimoto Asaoka once again claimed that Dokdo (known as Takeshima in Japan) is Japanese territory, and publicly announced plans to dispatch cabinet ministers to participate in the so-called "Takeshima Day" event.
On the 12th, Hashimoto Asaoka said in the House of Representatives Budget Committee: "It is very important to convey to as many people as possible that this is Japanese territory and to convey this fact to the international community," and expressed the hope that "an environment should be created to allow the dispatch of cabinet ministers to participate in the 'Takeshima Day' event."
This year, Hashimoto only dispatched Kogawa Naoki from the Cabinet Office to attend the event held on the 22nd of last month.
Kogawa, the parliamentary secretary of the Diet, stated at the event location, "Dokdo is clearly Japanese territory according to historical facts and international law."
