Japanese Emperor Hirohito passed away. Why does Japan want China to attend the funeral?

War Criminal

Japan’s Emperor Hirohito is a special being. He is a war criminal who has not been liquidated. He should be responsible for all Japan’s crimes during World War II and bring The countless painful anti-Japanese wars of our Chinese nation were instigated by him. Although the first shot was not ordered by him, the subsequent actions were approved by this old man. Without his nod, the Japanese militarists would be bolder I don't dare to adjust to such a big national war. So the old man Emperor Hirohito was very bad. Originally, as part of the war, he should have been sent to a military court. However, in order to reduce the losses caused by the occupation of Japan, the United States retained the emperor of Japan. The emperor was not sent to the gallows and lived until January 1989. Died of cancer.

Japanese Xiao Jiujiu

As Japan's nominal monarch, he passed away. Naturally, the old man's funeral had to be a grand event, so politicians from various countries were invited to attend Yuren's funeral. The plot of the emperor's funeral was distributed everywhere like snowflakes. As one of Japan's most important neighbors, our country also accepted the invitation letter from the Japanese.

Why did the Japanese invite our country to attend the emperor’s funeral?

The reason is very simple. The Japanese know that due to World War II, almost no one in the neighboring countries likes the Showa Emperor. The Japanese will feel shameless, and the so-called grand funeral will become a big joke.

So the Japanese particularly hope that China can send personnel to participate. On the one hand, China is Japan’s most important Asian neighbor and has a strong international influence. Secondly, the Japanese are very concerned about China’s crimes during World War II. The crime committed was the most serious. If China could send people to attend the funeral of Emperor Showa at this time, it would be like sending a signal to the outside world that China had forgiven Japan for its crimes in World War II, and the Japanese felt that China and Japan were on their honeymoon at that time. During this period, China received a lot of help from Japan in the early stages of reform and opening up. China is likely to agree to the Japanese's request and come to express condolences.

The Chinese government responded domineeringly

Although China in the late 1980s was not as powerful as it is now, it was no longer the China of more than 100 years ago. China already had two bombs and one satellite. For a major power in the world to attend the funeral of a murderous warmonger who brought countless sufferings to the Chinese people would greatly hurt the feelings of the Chinese people and be an insult to our martyrs who died in the Anti-Japanese War.

After our government accepted Japan’s invitation, it responded with four words very wisely, that is, to face history squarely. This is tantamount to telling the Japanese that the Chinese have not forgotten the crimes committed by the Japanese against the Chinese. We have not forgotten how the Japanese used Spring and Autumn calligraphy to cover up their crimes. If they want to be respected by China, the Japanese must face up to their history of aggression. This is very difficult for the Japanese, because the Japanese have not They were unwilling to face up to their history of aggression, and there were still many proofs to go to the shrine to worship ghosts, so in the end the Japanese devils' wishful thinking came to nothing
