国際歴史論戦研究所（International Research Institute of Controversial Histories /iRICH）は2019年6月24日から7月12日まで開催されたジュネーブ国連人権理事会(UNHRC)の第41セッションにスタッフを派遣し対国連活動を行いました。
During the Right of Reply in this
session, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea responded to the statement made
by the Japanese Representative at the High Level Segment.
北朝鮮は、このセッションの「返答の権利」の期間に日本政府代表の発言に対して反論しました。
DPRK argued issues related to the “forced laborers” which were not
forced, “sex slaves” who were “war time prostitutes” and North Korean schools
subsidiaries.
Regarding the abduction issue, DPRK
has been continuously blamed by the international community as one of the worst
inhumane crimes.
北朝鮮は、拉致問題に関して最悪の人権蹂躙のひとつとして国際社会から継続的に非難されています。
Koreans who worked for the Japanese
companies during World War II were just “wartime laborers” rather than “forced laborers,” and entirely
different from “slave laborers” which DPRK representative said in his speech.
Comfort women were “wartime
prostitutes.” We strongly believe the
most important thing to resolve historical issues are “fact-centered approach”
rather than “victim-centered approach” which rests merely on emotions and
subjectivities.
A “victim-centered approach” relies
exclusively on the oral testimonies of self-proclaimed comfort women. However testimonies must be substantiated
with evidences and subjected to cross-examination. Indeed, testimonies by so-called comfort
women are not based on hard evidence.
South Korean schools are getting
government subsidiaries based on the rule of the Ministry of Education however
North Korean schools are not following it.
韓国学校は文科省の規則に照らして、国からの補助金を得ていますが、朝鮮学校はそれを守っていません。
But if they follow the rules, they
can get it even from the next day.
しかし、彼らが規則を満たせば、翌日からでも補助金を得られます。
DPRK is requested to sincerely face
the problems, stop
violating the human rights and return all the abductees abducted from Japan
which DPRK admitted that their agents kidnapped.
The Republic of Korea’s Supreme Court ruled Japanese companies must pay
compensation to Koreans for having been “forced” into labor during World War
II.
Koreans who worked for Japanese companies at the time chose to work
seeking a good wage based on their own will.
当時、日本の企業に働いていた韓国人達は、高給を求めて自らの意思で働いていました。
Mobilization of Korean-Japanese nationals for a mere six months was not
forced and entirely within international law.
たった６ヶ月間の韓国人の徴用は、強制ではなく国際法に沿ったものでした。
The compensation between Japan and the ROK was resolved completely and
finally by the Japan-ROK agreement signed in 1965.
そして、補償に関しては、１９６５年に調印した日韓合意で完全かつ最終的に解決されました。
The Japanese Supreme Court also ruled “an individual demand is
nullified.”
Demanding compensation from Japanese companies based on the Korean
Supreme Court ruling is tantamount to revoking a legally binding treaty signed
between two nations, which violating Japan’s sovereignty and trampling upon the
rights of the Japanese people.
Korean Minister of Foreign Affairs Kang Kyung-wha addressed at this council last year and last week, repeatedly
violating the same treaty and additional bilateral treaty signed in December
2015 related to the Comfort Women issue. Treaty is a promise between
nations. Even kids know the braking promise is wrong.
Before talking about the comfort women issue, Kang Kyung-wha needs to apologize to the victims of the
sexual violence committed by South Korean troops during the Vietnam War and
take victim-centered measures.
Why this council is tolerating the nation who always violates the
bilateral treaties?
なぜこの理事会は、２国間の条約をいつも反故にする国を大目に見ているのでしょうか？
We demand this council to instruct South Korean Government to immediately
undertake measures to correct their errant diplomatic relations and sincerely
apologize to the Vietnamese victims called Lai-Dai-Han.
