U.S. President Barack Obama and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe speak at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial in Japan
United States President Barack Obama and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe deliver remarks following a wreath-laying ceremony at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial in Japan. Obama describes the horrors of World War Two and the destruction of the first atomic bomb and says that the U.S. and Japan have made choices since the Hiroshima bombing that should give the world hope and that the world needs to change its mindset about war and work toward peaceful cooperation. Prime Minister Abe, via a translator, talks about his address to the U.S. Congress in 2015 on the 70th anniversary of the end of World War Two and about the friendship between the U.S. and Japan.
