The top UN human rights official says the
so-called comfort women should be the ones
to decide if Japan has properly compensated
them.
Giving his annual speech at the UN Human Rights
Council on Thursday, High Commissioner Zeid
Ra'ad Al Hussein said that despite South Korea
and Japan reaching a deal in December, the
surviving victims of Japan's sexual slavery
still demand proper compensation.
He said the authorities should be able to
reach out and listen to the voices of these
brave women since they are to judge if they
were compensated appropriately.
