Picture of the Day: Protesting Comfort Woman Statue Removal

Protesting Foreign Ministry's stance on girl statue

Members from the civic Korean Council for the Women Drafted for Military Sexual Slavery by Japan call for the foreign ministry to withdraw its recent request to move a girl statue symbolizing the victims of Japan’s sexual slavery during the World War II to another place during a news conference at the National Assembly in Seoul on Feb. 24, 2017. On Feb. 14, the ministry sent a letter to the Busan city government, asking for cooperation in moving the statue, which civic groups set up in front of the Japanese consulate in the city. Japan demanded an immediate removal and recalled its ambassador to South Korea in protest about a month ago. (Yonhap)
