A resolution seeking justice for the Japanese citizens abducted by North Korea.

This resolution addresses the long-standing issue of Japanese citizens abducted by North Korea, a practice recognized by the U.S. Government since the 1970s. Despite North Korea's 2002 admission and promise to investigate, only five abductees were returned, leaving many unresolved cases. The House of Representatives now calls for specific actions to achieve justice for these victims. It urges North Korea to release all abducted foreign nationals , including those from Japan, and to return the remains and provide information on any deceased abductees. Furthermore, the resolution demands that North Korea make appropriate restitution to the victims and their families. Finally, it calls for North Korea to issue a formal apology and to permanently cease all such abduction activities, aligning with fundamental principles of liberty and human rights.
