    Which Japanese politician advised the Emperor to begin negotiations to end World War II in February 1945, and why was he rejected?

    Prince Fumimaro Konoe.

    Konoe played a role in the fall of the Tôjô government in 1944. In February 1945, during the first private audience he had been allowed in three years he advised the Emperor to begin negotiations to end World War II.

    The advice was rejected because Hirohito was still looking for a tennozan (a great victory).
