横田惠被绑架49年之际,高市早苗发文:让所有被绑架者早日踏上故土是赋予我的使命

11月15日是日本少女横田惠在新潟被朝鲜特工绑架49周年。日本首相高市早苗在社交平台X上发文称,让所有被绑架者早日踏上日本的土地,「是赋予我的使命」。
高市早苗写道,她已聆听横田惠的母亲横田早纪江等被绑架者家属的恳切心声,对至今未能实现他们归国深感痛心,并表示日本政府将全力以赴推动问题解决。
横田惠1977年11月15日在放学回家途中失踪,当时只有13岁。日本政府正式认定共有17名日本公民被朝鲜绑架,其中5人已于2002年回国,其余12人至今下落不明。本月8日,东京举行约800人参加的集会,要求立即救回全部被绑架者。

On 49th Anniversary of Megumi Yokota's Abduction, PM Takaichi Vows to Bring All Abductees Home
November 15 marks 49 years since Japanese schoolgirl Megumi Yokota was abducted by North Korean agents in Niigata. Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi posted on X that bringing all abductees home to set foot on Japanese soil as soon as possible is "the mission imposed on me."
Takaichi wrote that she has heard the earnest pleas of the abductees' families, including Yokota's mother, Sakie Yokota, that she feels deep pain that their return has still not been achieved, and that the whole government will work to resolve the issue.
Megumi Yokota disappeared on her way home from school on November 15, 1977, aged just 13. The Japanese government officially recognises 17 citizens as having been abducted by North Korea; five returned home in 2002, while the other 12 remain unaccounted for. On November 8, about 800 people rallied in Tokyo demanding the immediate return of all the abductees.
