BERLIN, GERMANY - NOVEMBER 25: Protesters gathered on the United Nations International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women at the “Ari” monument to protest against its possible removal on November 25, 2024 in Berlin, Germany. “Ari” is a monument to the comfort women forced into prostitution by Japanese occupation forces before and during WW2. The government of Japan has repeatedly requested that the monument be removed and city authorities have given the local associations responsible for the monument instructions to remove the statue, citing the breach of a two-year limit on the presentation of the monument in a public space. Korea Verband, the civic group that erected the statue, have stated they will apply for a court injunction against its removal order and await this judicial decision.
