Ex-Prime Minister Kan criticized the operator of a tsunami-hit nuclear plant for hiding large portions of video taken during last year’s crisis, including sound of his own. Kan led the emergency effort from his Tokyo office during the crisis at the Fukushima Dai-ichi plant after the March 11, 2011, tsunami critically damaged its reactors. (AP Photo/Junji Kurokawa)
