South Korea has released a video in six more languages... aiming to refute claims by Japan that one of its planes was locked on by a South Korean warship's targeting radar.
The clip, already released by the defense ministry in Korean and English... shows Seoul's position that its Navy did not intend to threaten the Japanese patrol aircraft and did not use radar on it.
The video also urges Japan to stop politicizing the issue.
It asks the Japanese government to answer why, in international waters,... the aircraft was conducting an unmannered low-altitude flight in a menacing way to disrupt the warship's humanitarian efforts.
According to a military source,... South Korea and Japan see eye-to-eye on the need to hold consultations,... and are currently setting up working-level talks on the issue.
