Japan Says U.S. House Vote on Wartime Sex Slavery Regrettable
July 31 (Bloomberg)
Japan said it's regrettable the U.S. House of Representatives demanded the country officially apologize for its role in recruiting as many as 200,000 women into sexual slavery before and during World War II.
The House yesterday approved a resolution calling on Japan's Prime Mminister Shinzo Abe, to publicly apologize.
It's "regrettable," Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Shiozaki said at a regular press conference in Tokyo today.
Bagelblogger: I would have thought the forced prostitution and the consequences on the lives of thousands of women to be somewhat more 'regrettable'.
