Not your islets
![Members of a Korean association on the Dokdo islets hold a rally in front of the Japanese Embassy in central Seoul on Tuesday to urge Tokyo to scrap an annual event aimed at publicizing its territorial claims on Korea’s easternmost islets in the East Sea. Korea's Foreign Ministry summoned a senior Japanese embassy official to lodge a protest against the "Takeshima Day" event, calling it a "vain provocation.” Senior Tokyo officials attended the controversial ceremony hosted by the Japanese prefecture of Shimane earlier in the day.
