李源潮會見“日本遺孤”

Chinese Vice President Li Yuanchao has met with a group of war-displaced Japanese orphans who were raised by Chinese families after the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.

中國國家副主席李源潮會見了在日本侵華戰(zhàn)爭后由中國人撫養(yǎng)長大的日本遺孤代表團(tuán)。

日本遺孤(遺華日僑)，是指1945年日本戰(zhàn)敗投降后，日本侵略者撤退和遣返期間，遺棄在中國并被中國人撫養(yǎng)長大的日本孤兒，常用Japanese orphan/ Japanese "left-behind orphan"/Japanese war orphan表示。

李源潮說，中日近代以來經(jīng)歷了日本軍國主義(Japanese militarism)侵華的歷史悲劇，戰(zhàn)后中國人民把數(shù)以千計的日本遺孤?lián)狃B(yǎng)成人，展現(xiàn)了博大胸懷，日本遺孤也積極促進(jìn)兩國友好(work actively to promote friendship between the two countries)。今年是中國人民抗日戰(zhàn)爭(Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression)暨勝利70周年，中方愿在中日四個政治文件基礎(chǔ)上，本著以史為鑒、面向未來精神(in the spirit of taking history as a mirror and facing up to the future)，推動中日關(guān)系改善發(fā)展。

日本遺孤表示，日本是祖國，中國是故鄉(xiāng)(Japan is the motherland, but China is the hometown.)。衷心希望日中世代友好，愿終身為此努力。
