How does the average Japanese view the Nanking Massacre?
That's understandable. Has the Japanese government ever officially apologized for the Nanking Massacre?
Yes, in 1995, the then Prime Minister of Japan, Tomiichi Murayama, issued a statement acknowledging and expressing remorse for Japan's aggression and colonial rule during World War II, including the Nanking Massacre. However, opinions remain divided among the Japanese public and denialism of the massacre still persists among some individuals.
