Chief Cabinet Secretary Hayashi: We do not accept that the abduction has been resolved. Kim Yo Jong, sister of North Korean General Secretary Kim Jong Un, mentioned the possibility of Prime Minister Kishida visiting Pyongyang.
Hayashi said that she would "take note" of the younger sister of the North Korean leader. On the other hand, he said, it is completely unacceptable to claim that the abductions issue has already been resolved, and that Japan's policy is to comprehensively resolve outstanding issues such as abductions.
