Q&As
(Abridged)
REPORTER: Today, the Republic of Korea (ROK) lifted a travel ban on our former Seoul bureau chief, who was indicted without arrest on a charge for defaming the ROK President. I would first like to ask for your reaction to this.
CHIEF CABINET SECRETARY SUGA: The Government has communicated its concerns over this matter to the ROK Government on a number of occasions in a number of different ways. We have requested that this matter be dealt with properly. Japan considers today’s measure as a given. We are glad that this measure was taken for now, for the time being.
