Japan's Apology Demanded by S. Korean School Youth and Children
Pyongyang, August 4 (KCNA) -- South Korean school youth and children held a press conference in Seoul on July 31 at which they demanded the Japanese government make apology and reparation for its crimes related to sexual slavery.

They recalled that victims of sexual slaves for the Imperial Japanese Army and members of different organizations hold rallies every Wednesday to denounce the crimes committed by the Japanese imperialists against the Korean women.

They held that the school youth and children should also turn out in the actions to force Japan to redress the crimes.

They declared that they would thrust to the Japanese embassy side a list of signatures of students and citizens condemning Japan for the above-said crimes and demanding its apology and reparation.

They slammed the Japanese government for claiming in its white paper on defence that Tok Islets belong to its territory, declaring that the islets are part of the territory of Korea as proved by historical facts.

They also stated that they would conduct diverse actions demanding Japan's apology and reparation and assailing its moves to grab the islets in different areas including Kwanghwamun.
