If you say you are sorry, linguistically you can be sorry for a lot of things. It literally means you feel with someone. Only if you say ‘sorry that was my mistake’ than it becomes a Syntax defining your guilt. As far as I know, only the US makes you guilty for feeling the pain of someone else and therefore feel sorry.
