China marks 77th anniversary of Second Sino-Japanese War with largest event ever
Beijing appears determined to continue pressing Tokyo to stop denying its past wrongdoing... with its
largest commemorative event ever of the 77th anniversary of the start of its second war of resistance against Japan.
Chinese President Xi Jinping was there to address the public... and stress that his nation would steadfastly guard history.
Our Shin Se-min reports.
Chinese President Xi commemorated the start of the eight-year War of Resistance against Japan at an anniversary event that was larger than ever this year to highlight Japan's wartime atrocities.
Although the Chinese head of state avoided mentioning Japan or Abe by name,... he said there are still a small number of people who ignore the iron facts of history.
The Chinese people, who made great sacrifices, will steadfastly guard history, which is written with our lives and blood. We firmly take the path of peaceful development, and we hope all the nations in the world will also walk the path of peaceful development.
The Chinese government marks the event every year, but on this day, 77 years later,... the commemoration ceremony was more extensive than ever.
The event was carried live on China's state television CCTV, Xinhua Online and many other media outlets in the nation.
This year's event is significant not only for its scale, but also for the live broadcast and the presence of the president, underscoring its importance.
The anniversary comes amid escalating regional tensions and a territorial dispute between the two countries.
On July 7th, 1937,... the armies of China and Japan engaged in a battle that now marks the beginning of the Second Sino-Japanese War.
That battle is known as the Marco Polo Bridge Incident.
Chinese defenders were attacked, civilians were slaughtered by gunfire, bombs and biological weapons, forced laborers died and women were raped.
The large-scale anniversary event comes as China has already started releasing from its State Archives written confessions by Japanese war criminals every day for a total of 45 days.
One such confession says the Imperial Japanese army kidnapped 20 women from Korea and China and forced them into prostitution for its troops.
Although Beijing has long accused Japan of denying its wartime atrocities,... experts say that expanding the scale of this year's anniversary event is a move directed at the Japanese government... as a way to force it to face its history.
Shin Se-min, Arirang News.
And in a more recent development,... Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga has responded to President Xi's criticisms, saying Beijing does nothing to promote peace and cooperation in Northeast Asia.
Speaking at a press briefing this Wednesday,... Suga added that a national leader should focus on improving future-oriented relations to work toward common goals,... and said that Tokyo would be keeping tabs on China's own approach toward historical matters.

China fought an 8-year war against Japanese aggression
The military parade on September 3 remembers the sacrifice of the millions of Chinese who stood up to the invading Japanese army. The aggression actually began as early as 1931 in northeast China, but it wasn't until 1937 that the full-scale invasion began. The so-called Lugou Bridge Incident was the beginning of what turned out to be an 8-year-long war.

Nanking Massacre:One of the darkest periods in Chinese history
The Nanjing Massacre continues to hold a deep resonance in the hearts of people across China. In a period of just six weeks during the Japanese occupation of the city in December 1937, some 300,000 people were brutally killed by Japanese forces. Even today, the horrific events of the past cast a shadow over ties between the two countries. With this year marking the 70th anniversary of the end of the Second World War, we look back at the massacre, which was one of the darkest periods in Chinese history.

STORYLINE
Amid tense relations with Tokyo, China on Thursday marked the 68th anniversary of the start of World War II fighting against Japanese invaders with commemorations that mixed defiant official comments and the release of doves symbolising peace.
A senior Communist Party leader, Li Changchun, attended a ceremony at a war memorial near the Marco Polo Bridge southwest of Beijing, where Japanese soldiers attacked Chinese forces on July 7, 1937.
The event also was attended by several hundred soldiers and students who held a moment of silence for millions of Chinese war dead and released 3,000 gray doves.
The Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japan was fought under the banner of a united front pioneered by the Communist Party based on the cooperation of the Nationalist Party and the Communist Party, another senior party figure, said in a speech.
It was a just war of resistance against the Japanese militarists fought together by the Chinese people of all ethnic groups, including Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan compatriots and the overseas Chinese Communities, he added.
Commemorations this year come at a time when Beijing's relations with Tokyo are at their lowest point in decades. They have been soured by disputes over Japanese history textbooks, Tokyo's campaign for a permanent U.N. Security Council seat and rivalry over undersea oil and gas resources.
Beijing regards Tokyo as its main rival for status as the region's military power. The communist government regularly marks war anniversaries

The younger generation does not know the history because they are not taught it. To me it's not a good thing they are not told the truth that we invaded China.

STORYLINE
A Japanese war veteran on Saturday apologised to China for his conduct in the occupation of Manchuria in the 1930s.
At a ceremony in Beijing's military museum on Saturday, 83 year old Yasuyoshi Shioya presented a sword to a representative of the People's Liberation Army.
An apology in Japanese was engraved on the sword's blade.
The veteran also donated his army uniform to the museum.
Yasuyoshi Shioya was not representing the Japanese government but he said he hoped his apology would go some way towards improving relations between the two countries.
The atrocities committed in China by Japanese troops in the 1930s and Second World War are still a major point of frictions between China and Japan today.
The Chinese government has requested a formal apology from the Japanese, though this has not been forthcoming.
