■首脳会談実現のため環境整備にさらに努力
国民大集会の開催に当たり、一言ご挨拶を申し上げます。
私は今月（２０２２年１０月）の初め、鳥取県米子市を訪れ、松本京子さんの拉致現場を、お兄さんの松本 孟さんと共に回りました。また、家族会の横田拓也代表の挨拶を伺いました。
被害者の方々の帰りを待ち続けているご家族の思いを考えると、忸怩たる思いであり、本当に申し訳なく思っています。
一昨年には横田 滋さん、有本嘉代子さんが、昨年は飯塚繁雄さんが、ご家族との再会を果たすことなくお亡くなりになりました。
拉致問題の解決にはもはや一国の猶予もないという切迫感をひしひしと感じています。日・朝間に存在する不信感を打ち破り、拉致問題を解決し、双方がより明るい未来を描くためには、先ほど総理も述べられた通り、わが国が主体的に動きトップ同士で関係を構築するしかありません。総理の指示の下、そのための環境整備にさらに努力して参ります。
すべての拉致被害者の一日も早い帰国実現に向けて、ご家族の皆様に寄り添いながら全力で取組んで参ります。
今後ともご支援ご協力をいただきますようお願いを申しあげ、私のご挨拶とさせていただきます。

［October 21, 1977: Woman abducted］
Abductee: Kyoko Matsumoto (29, female, Tottori Prefecture)
Disappeared on her way to knitting class near her home.
The GoJ requested that North Korea provide information on her case at the 12th round of Japan-North Korea Normalization Talks held in Kuala Lumpur in October 2002 and at all three Japan-North Korea Working-Level Consultations held in 2004. During the third round of consultations, North Korea asserted that there is no evidence that Ms. Matsumoto had ever entered North Korean territory.
Since November 2006, when the GoJ officially identified Kyoko Matsumoto as an abductee, the GoJ has repeatedly demanded that North Korea immediately allow her to return to Japan and provide a full accounting of her case. North Korea, however, has not responded.

The book named “Sea of Mercy”
13-year- old junior high school student Takeshi Terakoshi was abducted in May 1963.
He went fishing with his two uncle, Shoji and Soto-o Terakoshi. The fishingboat named Kiyomaru left for the fishing ground nearby Noto island, Ishikawa prefecture.
Kiyomaru encountered North Korean spy vessel. Spies were afraid of detection.
Soto-o and Takeshi were abducted and carried to Chong-jin city. Shoji was considered to be killed at the site.
Families, fellow fishermen and coast guard searched the area, but they could find only Kiyomaru and Takeshi’s school uniform.
They thought 3 persons were in disress and died. Funeral service was held.24 Years were passed.
In 1987, Soto-o’s sister received the letter from Soto-o and surprised.
Soto-o wrote “Takeshi and I am living in Gusong, North Korea”.
Takeshi’s father and mother visited to North Korea in1988 and met with Soto-o and Takeshi.
But they couldn’t say how they carried to North Korea because NK officials watched them.
North Korea made the story of their shipwreck accident and lifesaving.
Since then, Takeshi’s parents visited to him a lot of times but Takeshi and his family members cannot say that Takeshi and his uncles were abducted.
In 1997, Megumi Yokota case was appeared in the media and the national congress. Terakoshi’s case was also observed as an abduction case. But “he” denied that he was abducted and praised North Korea and the Kim family.
In December 2001, Pyongyang publishing company published a book named “Sea of Mercy”.
The author is Kim Myong-ho, Takeshi’s Korean name.
In that book, Takeshi wrote that they are not the abduction victims but happily living in North Korea after they ware saved. Moreover “he" denied other abduction case such as Megumi Yokota and Yaeko Taguchi in this book.
Nine months later, Kim Jong-il admitted and appologized for the abduction activities.
But North Korea still denies Terakoshi’s case as abduction and Takeshi and his family cannot say he was abduction victim because Takeshi himself is a hostage.
“Sea of Mercy”, the title is a symbol of North Korean regime.
