For Abe, the choice is whether to tone down his nationalist rhetoric and moderate his position on contentious historical issues. This would include halting visits to the controversial Yasukuni shrine (which honors, among others, 14 Class A war criminals who were executed after World War II) and abandoning revisionism regarding the Korean “comfort women” who were forced to provide sexual services to the Japanese Imperial Army.
对安倍晋三来说，他面临的选择是是否降温民族主义口风、软化在争议历史问题上的立场。这将包括停止前往有争议的靖国神社（供奉14名二战后被处决的甲级战犯）、放弃对被迫为日本皇军提供性服务的韩国“慰安妇”的修正主义立场。安倍会如何决定也许取决于他对其政治处境的信心。
