I must point out that the territorial disputes between Japan and its neighbors stem from its past aggression and colonial rules. We hope that Japan can face up to history, have a deep reflection on it and take real action to win back trust from its Asian neighbors. - Hua Chunying (華春瑩), during a regular press briefing (2014.02.05) 일본의 이웃 국가와의 영토 분쟁은 일본의 침략전쟁 및 식민통치 역사와 매우 밀접한 관련이 있습니다. 우리는 일본이 역사를 바로 보고 깊은 과거에 대해 반성하고, 아시아 이웃 국가들로부터 신뢰를 얻을 수 있는 실질적인 행동을 취할 수 있기를 빕니다. - 화춘잉(華春瑩) 대변인

Abe's visit to the shrine has already attracted the Chinese people's ire and denunciation. How can a person who is not willing to face up to their own history, to facts, win the trust of the international community or cause people to believe he has a role to play in maintaining regional and global peace and stability? - Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying (Dec 27, 2013) 아베 총리의 신사참배는 이미 중국 인민들의 분노와 비난을 불지폈습니다. 어떻게 자신들의 역사를 제대로 돌아보려하지 않는 사람이 국제사회의 신뢰를 받을 수 있고, 지역과 세계 평화와 안정을 유지하기 위해 노력하고 있다는 것을 믿도록 할 수 있겠습니까? - 화춘잉(華春瑩) 중국 외교부 대변인

Abe's visit to the shrine was not conducive to lowering tensions in the region or to improving relations with Japan's neighbors. - EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton (Dec 27, 2013) 아베총리의 신사참배는 지역갈등을 완화하거나 일본의 이웃과의 관계를 개선하는데 좋지 않습니다. - 캐서린 애슈턴 (Catherine Ashton) 국제기관단체인, 전 정치인

The United States is disappointed that Japan's leadership has taken an action that will exacerbate tensions with Japan's neighbors. - Caroline Kennedy (1957- ), a statement posted on the website of the U.S. embassy in Tokyo (Dec 26, 2013) Mr. Abe's provocative move prompted the U.S. government to issue a statement expressing its disapproval. 일본 지도자가 인접국과 긴장을 고조시키는 행위를 취한 것에 대해 미국 정부는 실망했습니다. - 존 F 케네디 전 미국 대통령의 장녀인 캐럴라인 케네디(Caroline Kennedy) 주일 미국대사, 아베 신조(安倍晋三) 총리의 야스쿠니 신사 (Yasukuni Shrine) 참배에 대해

Japan must bear the consequences arising from this. The visit, the first by an incumbent Japanese prime minister since 2006, causes great harm to the feelings of the Asian people and creates a significant new political obstacle to bilateral relations. - Luo Zhaohui (羅照輝), a director-general of the ministry's department of Asian affairs, in a statement posted on a verified ministry microblog (Dec 26, 2013) 일본은 이로부터 발생하는 결과를 감내해야 합니다. 2006년 이후 총리가 처음으로 한 신사참배는 아시아 민족들에게 큰 상처를 주고, 상호관계에 매우 중요한 정치적 장애물을 만들었습니다. - 뤄자오후이(羅照輝) 중국 외교부 아시아국장

Bilateral summits will now be even more of a long shot. It will likely also hurt Tokyo's ties with Washington, considering how the U.S. has been pushing for Japan to improve ties with its Asian neighbors. The visit seems to make it obvious that Mr. Abe's economic polices were a guise to hide his nationalistic intent. - Koichi Nakano , a political science professor at Sophia University in Tokyo (Dec 26, 2013) 양국 정상회담 성사 가능성은 더 멀어질 겁니다. 미국이 얼마나 일본이 아시아 이웃과의 관계 개선을 하도록 이야기 해왔는지 고려하면, 이는 또한 일본과 미국의 관계에도 해가 될 것입니다. 이러한 방문은 아베 총리의 경제 정책이 그의 국수주의적 의도를 숨기기 위한 겉모습이었는지 의심이 가도록 만듭니다. - 코이치 나카노, 정치학 교수

The essence of Japanese leaders' visits to the Yasukuni shrine is to beautify Japan's history of militaristic aggression and colonial rule. It is an attempt to overturn international society's just ruling on Japan's militarism and to challenge the results of World War II and the post-war international order. - Qin Gang (秦剛) , Beijing's foreign ministry spokesman, immediately after Abe's visit to the shrine (Dec 26, 2013) 일본 지도자들의 야스쿠니 신사 참배의 근본은 일본의 침략적이고 제국주의적인 군국주의 역사를 미화하는 것입니다. 이것은 일본의 군국주의로의 회귀로 국제사회의 규칙을 뒤집으려는 시도이며, 2차 대전의 결과와 전후 세계 질서에 대한 도전입니다. - 중국 외교부 친강(秦剛) 대변인

We strongly protest and seriously condemn the Japanese leader's acts. - Qin Gang (秦剛) , Beijing's foreign ministry spokesman, immediately after Abe's visit to the shrine 우리는 일본 지도자의 행동에 강하게 항의하고, 심각하게 규탄합니다. - 중국 외교부 친강(秦剛) 대변인, 아베의 야스쿠니 신사 참배 직후 (Dec 26, 2013)

The forces of justice and the Chinese people -- and the people elsewhere who love peace -- will never accept any comments or actions that seek to deny or glorify the past history of fascist aggression. - Chinese Premier Li Keqiang (May 27, 2013) 정의와 중국 국민들, 그리고 평화를 사랑하는 다른 모든 사람들은 전체주의적 침략의 역사를 부인하거나 정당화 하려는 그 어떤 발언이나 행동도 용인지 않을 것입니다. - 리커창 (李克强, 1955- ), 중국 총리

We(Korea) exert full sovereignty over Dokdo. It is totally meangless whatever the Japanese Government claims. - CHO Byung-jae , South Korean Foreign Ministry spokesman 독도에 대해서는 우리가 완벽한 영토주권을 행사하고 있다. 일본이 이에 대해 어떠한 주장을 하더라도 그것은 무의미한 일에 불과하다. - 조병제, 대한민국 외교통상부 대변인
