Preview

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe spoke Friday to mark the 70th anniversary of the end of World War Two. He offered, in his words, Japan’s "profound grief" and "sincere condolences" to all who suffered and died as a result of Japanese military aggression. Mr. Abe said Japan caused innocent people immeasurable damage and suffering.

It is not likely that the Japanese leader’s statement will satisfy the country’s neighbors, especially South Korea and China.

Each has repeatedly called on Mr. Abe to directly discuss atrocities committed by the Japanese military during its colonization of parts of Asia.
