The mayor and dwindling survivors urged world leaders to do more for a nuclear weapons ban.

A bereaved family member prays for the victims of U.S. atomic bombing at the Atomic Bomb Hypocenter Park in Nagasaki, southern Japan, Sunday, Aug. 9, 2020. Nagasaki marked the 75th anniversary of the atomic bombing on Sunday. TOKYO -- The Japanese city of Nagasaki on Sunday marked its 75th anniversary of the U.S. atomic bombing, with the mayor and dwindling survivors urging world leaders including their own to do more for a nuclear weapons ban.

At the event at Nagasaki Peace Park, scaled down because of the coronavirus pandemic, Mayor Tomihisa Taue read a peace declaration in which he raised concern that nuclear states had in recent years retreated from disarmament efforts. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has repeatedly refused to sign the treaty, saying Japan's approach is not to take sides but to serve as a bridge between nuclear and non-nuclear states to encourage dialogue to achieve a total nuclear ban. Survivors and pacifist groups say Japan is virtually siding with the U.S. and other nuclear states.

No more nuclear weapons !!!

who start the war who bomb City ? who kill civil ? so only few died from the N bomb. should consider 'lucky'

they started it, the americans ended it, very simple

There hasn't been a nuclear war and and since the bombing in Japan not a single nuclear weapon has been used in a conflict and likely never will be. Most countries that have nukes are responsible enough not to use them. NK is the standout. Pakistan & India are scary and Iran.

Nagasaki urges nuke ban on 75th anniversary of U.S. atomic bombingThe Aug. 9, 1945, bombing came three days after the United States dropped its first atomic bomb on Hiroshima, the world’s first ever nuclear attack that killed 140,000 Like that's going to happen! Why does Nagasaki even bother? Maybe to get attention. BTW, Hiroshima and Nagasaki are both thriving cities. Weren't they supposed to be wastelands for 10,000 years? Just asking. Hmm... Bombed by the americans, 75 years later, still a slave of the americans.
