On the 2nd of July 2008, the French President of the European Union has announced its priorities for the forthcoming six months to the Ambassadors and Heads of Mission of the 27 member countries of the European Union.<\/p>\n
With regard to Japan, according to European sources, the French presidency has announced the consular issue of Japan\u2019s failure to respect parental visitation rights with their children as one of the four top priorities.<\/p>\n
France must deal, together with other European countries, the US and Canada, with the problem of visitation rights with the children of divorced bi-national couples residing in Japan.<\/p>\n
Around 20 French citizens are denied this right. Even when a judge decides provides visitation rights, the police do not enforce these judicial decisions. Often rather than uphold the judicial decisions, Japanes law enforcement will violate the judicial decision and often arrest the parent endeavoring to have his visitation right respected, inappropriately making false accusations that the foreign parent is being a stalker, or that he\/she is menacing the public order.<\/p>\n
According to European sources, given the absence of commitment from the Japanese administration, the French President of the European Union has invited the 27 members of the European Union to exert pressure on the Japanese government as this problem can potentially harm the image of Japan in the international community.<\/p>\n
