The Potsdam Proclamation was a statement issued on July 26, 1945, by the leaders of the United States, the United Kingdom, and China during World War II. It called for the unconditional surrender of Japan and outlined the terms for Japan's post-war reconstruction, emphasizing the need for disarmament and the establishment of a democratic government. The proclamation warned Japan of "prompt and utter destruction" if it did not comply with these terms, ultimately leading to Japan's surrender after the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
