The editorial accused U.S. Secretary of State Tillerson of expressing his wish to see the present regime in south Korea and the new regime after the presidential election implement the agreement on the sexual slavery for the Imperial Japanese army at the U.S.-Japan diplomatic talks held in Tokyo on Mar. 16, adding this is no more than an undisguised interference in the south Korean "presidential" election.

To reexamine the "agreement" on the sexual slavery is the matter to be decided by the south Koreans and the regime, not the issue which allows the U.S. interference, it said.
