North Korea: The Japanese abduction issue has been solved and there is no room for discussion

---

North Korea expressed displeasure over Japan's continuing talks about the abduction issue.

The Chosun Central News Agency made a comment on the 2nd and said, the abduction issue that Japan is making so much of has already been irreversibly resolved, so there is no room for further discussion.

According to the news agency, if you look at the (abducted) victims who are still struggling, they have no relationship with us as missing people born of the decaying political climate of the island nation and the social trend of the last century. It is in itself irrelevant that Japan dares to address the abduction issue to us, not to other countries, and it is a testament to Japan's liver characteristics and moral low-income. If so, there would be no bigger miscalculations than this.

The comment appears to have taken issue with Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga's remarks at a plenary session of the House of Representatives that he would join forces with related countries on the abduction of Japanese.
