日本批准教科书删改“慰安妇”表述，外交部回应

针对日本文部科学省近日批准五家出版社要求修改或删除教科书中“慰安妇”相关表述的申请，外交部发言人赵立坚9月13日在例行记者会上表示，强征“慰安妇”是日本军国主义犯下的严重反人类罪行，这一历史事实铁证如山、不容否认。

日方再次在教科书上耍小聪明，玩弄文字游戏，这是企图模糊历史，淡化和逃避历史罪责，渐进式否认和歪曲侵略历史。“这再次凸显日本长期以来对待侵略历史不端正、不老实的错误态度和行径，再次伤害了受害国人民的感情。对此，所有热爱和平的人们绝不会答应。国际社会需持续严加防范，并予以纠正。”

The forced recruitment of "comfort women" is a grave crime against humanity committed by the Japanese militarism. It is a historical fact with iron-clad and undeniable evidence.

This is Japan's latest attempt to meddle with textbooks and play with words to blur the historical facts, understate and evade its historical responsibility, and deny and whitewash its history of aggression in a step-by-step manner. It once again highlights Japan's long-standing dishonest attitude towards the history of aggression, which has hurt the feelings of the people of the victimized countries. It will be rejected by all peace-loving people. The international community needs to take strict precautions and put things right.

赵立坚说，日方应诚实正视和反省侵略历史，同军国主义划清界限，以诚实和负责任的态度妥善处理强征“慰安妇”等历史遗留问题，以实际行动取信于亚洲邻国和国际社会。

Japan should honestly face up to and reflect on its history of aggression, make a clean break with militarism, properly handle the "comfort women" issue in an honest and responsible manner, and take concrete actions to win the trust of its Asian neighbors and the international community.
