Hiroshima atomic bomb day 11:36 on August 6th when atomic bomb survivors sued for nuclear abolition in Washington, USA
As the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima in 74 years, a meeting was held in Washington, the United States, to commemorate the victims of the atomic bomb, and the survivors appealed for the abolition of nuclear weapons.
This meeting is held annually by a civil society in Washington, and 20 members and other members gathered at a church near the White House.
Participants were silent at 8:15 am Japan time when the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima.
At the meeting, Ms. Kodama, who was bombed at the time in Hiroshima at the age of 7, was invited to talk about the experiences of being bombed in a school building about 4 kilometers from the hypocenter and the death of relatives one after another.
Finally, Kodama-san said, “I don't want anyone in the world to experience this kind of experience. I want you to listen to the voices of the A-bomb survivors and take a step forward instead of your own.” I complained that I should.
US President Trump rushed to modernize nuclear forces, but for nuclear disarmament, the INF = medium-range nuclear missile abolition treaty was abolished on the grounds of violating the Russian side and expired on the 2nd of this month. The existence of the nuclear disarmament treaty "New START" that welcomes Japan is also at risk.
An 84-year-old woman who had visited Hiroshima said, “It is wrong that the United States does not support the abolition of nuclear weapons. We should learn more about the atomic bomb experience and not forget it.”
