Japanese Communist Party Chair Shii Kazuo issued a comment in protest against North Korea’s frequent missile launches. Shii condemned the North for endangering the safety of fishing boats and commercial ships and planes in that area.
Shii in his comment called on the governments of Japan and nations concerned to step up their efforts, including the strengthening of economic sanctions, to resolve the North Korea issue through dialogue.
