corea del sur lamenta el envío de una ofrenda al santuario yasukuni por parte del pm japonés

Seúl, 21 de abril (Yonhap) — Corea del Sur ha expresado, este domingo, su “profundo pesar y decepción” por el envío, por parte del primer ministro japonés, Fumio Kishida, de una ofrenda ritual al santuario de guerra Yasukuni, considerado un símbolo del pasado militarista de Japón.

Kishida envió, más temprano este día, el árbol ceremonial al santuario Yasukuni, mientras que el ministro de Revitalización Económica, Yoshitaka Shindo, miembro del Parlamento japonés, lo visitó con motivo de su festival de primavera, según la agencia de noticias japonesa Kyodo.

“El Gobierno expresa su profundo pesar y decepción por el hecho de que líderes japoneses responsables hayan vuelto a enviar ofrendas o presentar sus respetos en el santuario Yasukuni”, dijo, en un comunicado, Lim Soo-suk, portavoz del Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores surcoreano.

El santuario rinde homenaje a los japoneses caídos en la guerra, incluidos 14 criminales de guerra de clase A, de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Países vecinos como Corea del Sur y China consideran que las visitas de los líderes japoneses al santuario son un intento de glorificar el pasado militarista del país.

Lim dijo que urgían, a los líderes responsables de Japón, a que afronten directamente a la historia y muestren, a través de la acción, una humilde reflexión y un genuino arrepentimiento por el pasado, a la vez que enfatizó, una vez más, que eso sería una base importante para el desarrollo de las relaciones Corea del Sur-Japón orientadas al futuro.

Desde que asumió el cargo, en 2021, Kishida no ha visitado el santuario, pero ha enviado ofrendas rituales.
