TOKYO - Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will issue a statement to mark the 70th anniversary of the end of World War Two later on Friday, with focuses on whether the leader could atone for Japan's dark past through offering an apology to victims of its wartime atrocities.

The statement is expected to be approved by the cabinet around 5 pm local time and will be released by Abe during a press conference about one hour later, according to Japan's Kyodo News.

The international community, especially neighbors China and South Korea, is closely watching Abe that whether he will clearly admit Japan's aggression and colonial rule before and during WWII and apologize and feel remorse for its wrongdoings, just like what his predecessor Tomiichi Murayama did two decades ago.

The former prime minister said in his landmark statement in 1995 marking the 50th anniversary of the WWII end that following a "mistaken national policy," Japan, "through its colonial rule and aggression, caused tremendous damage and suffering to the people of many countries, particularly to those of Asian nations."

Abe has reiterated that he will follow the Murayama Statement as a whole, but also stressed that it is unnecessary to repeat what the former leader said. He said he will focus on Japan's development in the postwar era and draw a blueprint of Japan's future role in the international community in his statement.

Japan's relations with China and South Korea are strained for long time for territorial disputes and historical issues of the Yasukuni Shrine visits by Japanese leaders and lawmakers, "comfort women" and efforts by the right-wing forces here to whitewash or deny Japan's past barbarities.
