2014年CRI 联合国教科文组织已受理南京大屠杀和慰安妇档案申报

 

Chinese President Xi Jinping has met with his Republic of Congo counterpart Denis Sassou Nguesso here in Beijing.

The two have also overseen¹ the signing of a number of agreements connected to trade, infrastructure² construction, finance and culture.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties between the two countries.

China says UNESCO has accepted its application to register records of the 1937 Nanjing Massacre³ and Japan's use of 'comfort women' to its Memory of the World Register.

The application has been accepted, despite strong opposition⁴ from Japan.

The materials submitted in the application include a series of documents, photos and first-hand accounts of survivors⁵ of the Nanjing Massacre.

The documents also include accounts of how the Japanese military conscripted so-called 'comfort women,' which is a euphemism⁶ for sexual slaves.

UNESCO's Memory of the World Register was created in 1997 as a way to preserve historical documentation.
