Japan’s Okinawa a reluctant host for US troops 80 years after WWII


Uruma (Japan) (AFP) – As people globally commemorate the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II, dozens of people living on the Japanese island of Okinawa renew their calls for American troops stationed there to leave. The US has around 54,000 military personnel in Japan, mostly on Okinawa, and a string of incidents over the years, including sexual assault cases, have angered residents.
