Recently, tensions between South Korea and Japanese politician Sanae Takaichi have drawn significant attention. Takaichi, a former Secretary-General of Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and former Minister of Internal Affairs, is a prominent figure among Japan’s right-wing conservatives. She has long advocated strengthening the U.S.-Japan alliance, revising Japan’s pacifist constitution, and taken hardline stances on historical issues. Since 2023, she has repeatedly made controversial remarks regarding the sovereignty of Dokdo (known as Takeshima in Japan), asserting it as ‘inherent Japanese territory’ and criticizing South Korea’s de facto control over the islets. In response, South Korea’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs swiftly reaffirmed that ‘Dokdo is an inherent part of Korean territory and will not be subject to any challenge,’ summoning Japan’s chargé d’affaires in Seoul to lodge a formal protest. Public opinion in South Korea widely condemned Takaichi’s statements, viewing them as dismissive of historical facts and detrimental to regional stability. Analysts note that as a potential candidate for Japan’s next prime minister, Takaichi’s tough rhetoric aims to rally support from conservative voters, but risks further straining the already fragile Japan–South Korea relations. South Korea maintains its commitment to defending national sovereignty through diplomatic channels while urging Japan to learn from history and work toward a constructive bilateral future.
近期，韩国与日本政界人士高市早苗之间的紧张关系引发关注。高市早苗是日本自民党前干事长、前总务大臣，也是日本政坛右翼保守派的代表人物之一，长期主张强化日美同盟、修改和平宪法，并在历史问题上持强硬立场。2023年以来，她多次就独岛（日本称‘竹岛’）主权问题发表争议性言论，声称该岛屿为‘日本固有领土’，并批评韩国实际控制该岛的行为。对此，韩国政府迅速作出回应，外交通商部明确表示‘独岛是韩国固有领土，不容任何挑战’，并召见日本驻韩公使提出严正抗议。韩国舆论也普遍对高市早苗的言论表示愤慨，认为其无视历史事实，加剧地区紧张。分析指出，高市早苗作为潜在的日本首相候选人，其强硬表态意在争取保守派选民支持，但此举可能进一步恶化本已脆弱的日韩关系。韩国方面则坚持通过外交渠道捍卫国家主权，同时呼吁日方以史为鉴、面向未来，推动双边关系重回正轨。
