  The Yasukuni Shrine is the spiritual tool and symbol of Japanese militarism in launching a war of aggression. It enshrines 14 Class A war criminals who were seriously responsible for that war of aggression.

  In 2020, Yoshihide Suga and others also offered sacrifices to the Yasukuni Shrine.

In response, the South Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a public statement stating that the Yasukuni Shrine beautified Japan’s previous war of aggression and worshipped war criminals. It deeply regrets that the Japanese government and the Speaker of the House of Representatives once again offered sacrifices to the Yasukuni Shrine.
