(Tokyo = Yonhap News) Reporter Park Seong-jin = Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida asked President Yoon Seok-yeol to implement the agreement on comfort women for the Japanese military and to remove restrictions on importing fishery products from Fukushima , the Sankei Shimbun reported on the 20th at the Korea-Japan summit.

According to reports, Prime Minister Kishida demanded the implementation of the comfort women agreement in a meeting with President Yoon held at the Prime Minister’s Office in Tokyo on the 16th.

Prime Minister Kishida also urged the removal of restrictions on the import of marine products from Fukushima Prefecture.

Since the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident in 2011, South Korea has banned the import of all species of fish from eight prefectures, including Fukushima, and bans the import of agricultural products of 27 items from 14 prefectures, including rice and mushrooms from Fukushima Prefecture.

However, Sankei said, “There has been no progress on these issues.”

In addition, according to the report, Prime Minister Kishida did not individually discuss the Dokdo issue and the UNESCO World Heritage listing of the Sado Mine in Niigata Prefecture, a site of forced labor for Koreans during Japan’s colonial era.

In addition, Prime Minister Kishida drew attention to the ‘radar-patrol aircraft’ issue that occurred in 2018 as an ongoing issue between the two countries.

Regarding this, President Yoon said, “This problem arose because there is a problem in the relationship of mutual trust. If we build a relationship of trust in the future, we can reconcile each other’s views,” Sankei introduced.

The radar-patrol aircraft conflict was triggered on December 20, 2018, when the Japanese side claimed that the ROK Navy ship Gwanggaeto the Great, searching for a North Korean fishing boat in distress in the East Sea, had scanned its fire control radar on and Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force P1 patrol aircraft that flew near the ship. .

At the time, the Japanese side released a video taken inside the patrol plane as proof of this, and the South Korean side refuted that there was no radar investigation, but rather that the patrol plane made a low-flying threat near the Great Gwanggaeto . .

In a joint press conference, the two heads of state are said to have exchanged views in advance of the summit on how to explain the issue of compensation for forced labor during the Japanese occupation.

Prime Minister Kishida said, “I understand that Korea does not intend to exercise the right of indemnity (to demand payment of debts from Japanese companies),” and President Yoon agreed not to exercise.

In a joint press conference after the summit, President Yoon said, “We are not considering exercising the right to indemnity (for the Japanese defendant company).”

When Prime Minister Kishida appealed, “In order to prevent North Korea from repeating ballistic missile launches, it is necessary to cooperate between South Korea and Japan and the United States and Japan.”

In a joint press conference, the two heads of state announced that they “declared the complete normalization of GSOMIA at the summit.”
