In a gesture of remembrance and solidarity, the leaders of Japan and South
Korea visited the Korean Atom Bomb Victims’ Memorial to pay their respects.
The memorial stands as a symbol of the immense suffering endured by the
victims of nuclear warfare, particularly during World War II. Japan, having
experienced the devastating impact of atomic bombings, recognizes the
importance of commemorating the victims and working towards global
disarmament. The visit by the leaders of both nations reflects a
willingness to address historical grievances and foster a path towards
reconciliation. It also serves as a reminder of the shared responsibility
to prevent the recurrence of such catastrophic events.
