发帖数: 61690 | 1 Dems hammer Japanese prime minister's speech as 'shocking and shameful'
"It is shocking and shameful that Prime Minister Abe continues to evade his
government's responsibility for the systematic atrocity that was perpetrated
by the Japanese Imperial Army against the so-called 'comfort women' during
World War II," Rep. Mike Honda (D-Calif.), a Japanese-American, said
afterward.
"Today's refusal to squarely face history is an insult to the spirit of the
200,000 girls and women from the Asia-Pacific who suffered during World War
II," he added. "This is unacceptable."
Rep. Judy Chu (D-Calif.), the head of the Congressional Asian Pacific
American Caucus, echoed the disappointment, accusing Abe of ignoring "Japan
’s responsibility for this particularly troubling and painful chapter." |
