        <description role="CCTVPLUSdescrole:Storyline" xml:lang="en">
Visits to the notorious war-linked Yasukuni Shrine are fundamentally unacceptable, as historical revisionism and nuclear policy shifts could lead Japan further down a dangerous path, said a prominent Japanese scholar. 

The Yasukuni Shrine is a spiritual tool and symbol of Japanese militarists' war of aggression. It honors 14 convicted Class-A war criminals with grave responsibilities for the war crimes committed during World War II. 

Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi made a monetary offering to the Yasukuni Shrine on Saturday, which marks the day of Japan's unconditional surrender in World War II, and certain cabinet members also visited the shrine, including Defense Minister Shinjiro Koizumi. 

Atsushi Koketsu, an honorary professor at Yamaguchi University, pushed back firmly against all such acts. 

"I believe that no visits to the Yasukuni Shrine, whether indirect or direct, should be made, including the ‘tamagushi’ ritual offerings," he said. 

This year marks the 80th anniversary of the start of the Tokyo Trials. On this occasion, Kouketsu further elaborated his views on Japan's historical awareness. 

He noted that historical truth cannot be distorted and established historical verdicts must not be challenged. Japanese society must draw proper lessons from the Tokyo Trials and foster a correct view of history. 

"Even today, many groups and political figures in Japan are still unwilling to recognize the historical facts such as the Nanjing Massacre. It is regrettable that 80 years after the Tokyo Trials, we must say that many Japanese people still have not fully learned the lessons from the Tokyo Trials," he said. 

Regarding the recent efforts by the Japanese government to revise the country's long-held Three Non-Nuclear Principles, Kouketsu stressed that such moves send a dangerous signal, and Japan must firmly adhere to the principles. 

"I believe that the new 'three security documents' are expected to be issued within the year. In these documents and even in the Defense White Paper released on August 4, there has already emerged an atmosphere of re-examining the 'Three Non-Nuclear Principles.' There have already been discussions in Japan regarding whether it can possess nuclear-powered submarines, among other issues. In other words, Japan is steadily and forcefully pushing forward, step by step, toward nuclear armament. This must never be allowed to happen. We should make 'no more nuclear-weapon states' as a national policy of Japan and strictly adhere to the Three Non-Nuclear Principles," he said.

　日本の無条件降伏から81年となる15日、東京にある靖国神社に高市早苗首相は玉串料を奉納、小泉進次郎防衛大臣など一部閣僚は参拝を行った。 

　靖国神社は、日本の軍国主義による対外侵略戦争の精神的支柱と象徴で、侵略戦争の重大責任を負うA級戦犯14人が合祀されている。 

　山口大学の纐纈厚名誉教授は、政治家の靖国参拝に強く反対。歴史修正主義や核政策転換を危惧している。 

　＜山口大学　纐纈厚名誉教授＞ 
　「そういう意味では玉串料を含めて一切、間接的であれ直接であれ、参拝行為はやってはいけない、というのが私の考えなんですね」 

　今年は極東国際軍事裁判（東京裁判）の開廷から80年。歴史真実は歪めるべきでなく、歴史的判決に異議すべきでないと纐纈教授は指摘。日本社会は裁判の教訓を汲み取り、正しい歴史観を確立すべきだと示した。

　＜山口大学　纐纈厚名誉教授＞ 
　「南京大虐殺事件についても、これを認めようとしない諸団体、あるいは政治家の人たちが多くまだいるわけです。そういう意味で言うと、残念ながらもう80周年経つんですけども、東京裁判から多くの日本人は十分に学びきっていないと言わざるを得ない」 

　「非核三原則」については厳守を強調、高市政権が再検討を進めているのは危険なシグナルだという。

　＜山口大学　纐纈厚名誉教授＞ 
　「私は、おそらくこの新安保3文書、年内に出ますけれども、この安保3文書の中に、あるいは今回8月4日に出た防衛白書の中にも、やはり非核三原則の問題はもう1回見直そうという雰囲気で書かれています。日本は原子力潜水艦の保有の問題とか、つまり日本は核兵器っていうものの保有に対して、だんだんだんだん露払い的な行為が重ねられていく。そんなことがあってはいけません。もうこれ以上、核保有国は増やさないということを日本の国是にすべきであり、非核三原則は厳守すべきだと思いますね」
