Hiroshima marks 81 years since the atomic bombing, and its mayor delivered a blistering rebuke to world powers, exposing how nuclear weapons are used to justify violence and peace — while pushing us further from disarmament. He warned that clinging to deterrence only fuels more destruction, urging global action.

Survivors, already disillusioned by rising global support for nukes and Japan’s refusal to join the Nuclear Weapons Ban Treaty (preferring U.S. protection), are demanding accountability — as the world watches whether history will repeat or finally turn the page.
