BEIJING, Oct. 3 (Xinhuanet) -- The Chinese government has outlined demands
that the Japanese government abide by a Japanese court's verdict on abandoned
chemical weapons that harmed Chinese victims, said Foreign Ministry spokesman
Kong Quan on Friday.
"It is an unarguable fact that the chemical weapons abandoned by Japan have
caused tremendous injuries to Chinese people, and we demand the Japanese
government treat seriously this solemn and just verdict," said Kong.
The Tokyo District Court on Monday ruled that compensation be paid to
Chinese nationals for damage caused to their health by chemical weapons left in
China by Japanese invading troops during World War II.
The Japanese government refused to accept the verdict
and appealed on October 3. Enditem |
