Yasukuni shrine

Former Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Katsunobu Kato (R) and former Minister of Health, Labor and Welfare Norihisa Tamura visit Tokyo's Yasukuni Shrine, viewed by Japan's Asian neighbors as a symbol of its past militarism due to the enshrinement of wartime leaders convicted as war criminals alongside the some 2.4 million Japanese war dead honored at the shrine, on Aug. 15, 2024, the 79th anniversary of the end of World War II.
