The war situation has developed not necessarily to Japan's advantage

From Emperor Hirohito, Accepting the Potsdam Declaration, Radio Broadcast. Transmitted by Domei and Recorded by the Federal Communications Commission, 14 August 1945.  I saw something today that reminded me of this masterpiece of elliptical, obscure, cryptic, and enigmatic communication.

But now the war has lasted for nearly four years.  Despite the best that has been done by everyone--the gallant fighting of our military and naval forces, the diligence and assiduity of out servants of the State and the devoted service of our 100,000,000 people--the war situation has developed not necessarily to Japan's advantage, while the general trends of the world have all turned against her interest.
