A lawyer on the plaintiff's side of a trial over "recruitment" during the Pacific War met in Tokyo on the 11th and issued a statement about the deterioration of Japan-Korea relations over export control.
The plaintiffs stated in a statement that “It is a solid first step toward improving Japan-Korea relations, where a forum for discussions with Japanese companies is established and the governments of both countries respect the situation.” , Asked both Japanese companies and the Japanese and Korean governments to tackle the problem.
The plaintiff side has begun to proceed with the procedure to seize and sell assets such as stocks owned by Japanese companies in Korea, but at the interview the plaintiff's lawyer said, “Procedure for cashing if discussions with companies proceed. ”And indicated the possibility of suspending the procedure as the consultation progressed, and called for consultation.
