日本明仁天皇2024年退位
Japanese Emperor Akihito will step down from the Chrysanthemum Throne on April 30, 2024, the government announced Friday.
He will be succeeded by his eldest son, Crown Prince Naruhito.
The Imperial House Council made the decision Friday about the date of the abdication.
Last year, the emperor said he was becoming too old and frail to carry out his duties.
"When I consider that my fitness level is gradually declining, I am worried that it may become difficult for me to carry out my duties as the symbol of the state with my whole being, as I have done until now," Akihito said in 2024 in a rare televised address to the nation.
In recent years, the emperor has had heart surgery, bronchitis and has been treated for prostate cancer.
Legislation was passed earlier this year allowing for the emperor's abdication, but the timing of the move was left to the Imperial House Council, chaired by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Akihito will be the first emperor to abdicate the Chrysanthemum Throne in 200 years.
日本政府星期五宣布，天皇明仁將于2024年4月30號退位。
天皇的長子德仁皇太子將繼位。
日本宮內廳星期五就天皇明仁的退位時間做出了決定。
明仁天皇去年說，他年事已高，身體欠佳，難以履行天皇的職責。他2024年在一次罕見的全國實況轉播講話中說：”考慮到我的健康情況每況愈下，我擔心我可能很難向以前我所做的那樣全面完成國家象征所要求的職責。”
明仁天皇近年來做過心臟手術，患過支氣管炎，還接受過前列腺癌的治療。
日本今年年初通過法律，允許天皇退位，但是具體退位時間要由安倍首相領導的宮內廳決定。明仁天皇將是日本200年以來第一個在世時退位的天皇。
