Japanese Emperor Akihito says Japan should remember the bitter lessons from World War Two. He said this during an interview to mark his 82nd birthday.
Akihito said he had been spending the past year, thinking of the war from various viewpoints.
He added it was extremely important to be fully aware of the war, and deepen people's thought, as the number of those who don't know about the war is increasing year by year.
2015 marks the 70th anniversary of the end of World War Two, also the surrender of Japan to the Allies.
At a ceremony earlier on August 15th to mark the end of the war, Akihito said he felt "profoundly remorse" over the conflict. It was the first time he used those words at an annual memorial on the day.
