Japan to ask S. Korea to remove monument

TOKYO, Japan - Chief Cabinet Secretary Osamu Fujimura holds a press conference at the prime minister's office in Tokyo on Dec. 14, 2011. Fujimura, the top government spokesman, said Japan is planning to call on South Korea to remove a monument that symbolizes Korean ''comfort women,'' which was set up the same day in front of the Japanese Embassy in Seoul by a civic group. ''Comfort women'' is a euphemism to describe women forced to provide sexual services for Japanese soldiers during World War II. (Kyodo)
