Three Cabinet Members Visit Yasukuni Shrine

TOKYO, JAPAN - OCTOBER 18: Minister in charge of the issue of abduction of Japanese nationals by North Korea Eriko Yamatani is seen during her visit to Yasukuni Shrine on October 18, 2014 in Tokyo, Japan. Visits to Yasukuni by Japanese lawmakers have long been a source of friction as South Korea, China and other nations regard the Shinto shrine, which memorializes 14 Class-A war criminals along with Japan's war dead, as a symbol of Japan's wartime militarism.
