日스가, 취임후 첫 야스쿠니 가을제사에 공물…'아베 계승'<br /><br />Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga sent an offering to the controversial Yasukuni Shrine for war dead to coincide with its autumn festival.<br />It's Suga's first such offering to the shrine since taking office last month.<br />Watchers note the Japanese PM technically worshipped the war dead by sending an offering without visiting in-person to avoid angering Seoul and Beijing.<br />It's also seen as following in the footsteps of former PM Shinzo Abe, who regularly sent offerings during his time in office.<br />The Yasukuni shrine's controversy lies in the fact that...it honors Japan's war dead, including 14 Class-A war criminals.<br />
