JAPAN-ROYALS

Japan's Emperor Akihito waves to well-wishers on his birthday beside Empress Michiko at the Imperial Palace on December 23, 2018. Japan's Emperor Akihito made a rare emotional address ahead of his abdication next year, his voice trembling as he discussed the legacy of the World War II and his appreciation for Empress Michiko and the public. Akihito, who marked his 85th birthday on December 23, said in a pre-recorded press address that he sensed "deep comfort" that his 30-year reign was ending without war in Japan.
