- The funds were first accepted in 2015, but the pressure and critique from the society forced the South Korean government to deny these funds in november 2018
- This has to do with pride and ongoing grudge held by the people of South Korea and Japan's inability to admit their responsibility due to pride.

- What about similar situations between other countries?
- Is co-operation more important than pride and dignity or the other way around? 
- What about Finland's relationships with other countries and how it reflects the civilians' attitudes towards other countries and peoples? ]]> 2019-02-12 11:16:35 UTC https://padlet.com/inka_elomaa/2g3oyad6tkvc/wish/330270221 inka_elomaa https://padlet.com/inka_elomaa/2g3oyad6tkvc/wish/330272687 Statue of peace; a statue of a teenage girl symbolising the sex slaves or "comfort women" who served the Japanese soldiers during WWII.
