Mori’s unpleasant departure from ‘female contempt’ … Excuse of “intentional denunciation”
State that the problem statement is an ‘interpretation problem’ … Tries to say hello to the back room
Criticized for saying “Japan is a country of gods centered on the emperor” when he was prime minister
(Tokyo = Yonhap News) Correspondent Lee Se-won = Woman Yoshiro Mori, who expressed appreciation for the derogatory remarks of a woman, the chairman of the Tokyo Organizing Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games (corresponding to the president) apologized or blamed to the media.
It is a pattern of losing dignity and being expelled, such as controversy when trying to secretly choose a successor in the courtyard of retreat due to inappropriate speech.
At a press conference held in Tokyo on the 12th, Mori expressed his apologies and thanked, saying, “My inappropriate comments caused big problems.”
However, as the Asahi newspaper reported on the 13th, Mori did a suspicious act by sincerely reflecting, emphasizing the accomplishments of the past seven years as president, or diluting his responsibilities.
Regarding the statements in question, “I think it is a form of interpretation, I will swear again if I say that,” he said in an interview.
“I think there have been some intentional reports about being criticized for being looked down upon by women,” he said. “I have come to the organization and praised women as much as possible, and I have no desire to look down on women.”
Born in 1937 during the Sino-Japanese War, and 83-year-old Mori, “I worked hard for the country and for the world. It is extremely unpleasant to portray the elderly as bad.” I want to study. “
Mori brought up the issue of increasing the number of female directors at the Japan Olympic Committee (JOC) temporary council meeting held on 3 this month and said: “The board of directors with a large number of women will take time.”
He said: “I have a strong sense of competition. If someone raises their hand and speaks, I think I should also speak. So everyone seems to be talking,” he said.
At the time, it was pointed out that the comments looked down on women and promoted prejudice, but Mori held on for more than a week saying she had no intention of resigning.
Later, as critical reports from the media around the world continued and public opinion deteriorated, Mori expressed her thanks as if pushing her away.
Before the company announcement, he asked former Japan Football Association president Kawabuchi Saburo, who is a senior at Waseda University and is known to be close to him, to serve as successor president. of the organizing committee.
The person who withdraws after causing trouble with comments contrary to the Olympic spirit was looking for a secret person, so he also criticized himself.
It is known that the office of the Prime Minister angrily conveyed the meaning of “the opinion of Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga” that it is desirable for a woman or young man to take office as successor.
The former president of the Kawabuchi Association initially indicated that he would accept the position of president, but after the opposition of the prime minister’s official was announced, he changed his attitude to reject it, and the successor, In-sun, was once banned.
The world is stunned by inappropriate comments from the Olympic Preparatory Command Tower, a festival of harmony, but the situation is frowned upon by the reluctant retreat after trying to hold on.
The Mainichi newspaper commented on Mori’s behavior on the 13th, saying: “He didn’t seem to understand until the end why he was criticized.”
Mori served as Japanese Prime Minister for one year from April 2000 to April 2001.
Even while he was in office, he caused his approval rating to drop through inappropriate words and actions.
In May 2000, Mori was criticized for denying the principle of national sovereignty stipulated by the Constitution, saying: “Japan is a country of gods with the emperor at the center.” In February 2001, a collision between an American nuclear submarine and a Japanese high school training ship occurred, but continued to be criticized for playing golf.
