In Japan, it is forbidden to say that the United States bombed it with atomic bombs

In Japan, there is an unspoken ban on statements that the United States dropped atomic bombs on it. During his speech at the ceremony on the occasion of the 79th anniversary of the nuclear strike on Hiroshima, neither Mayor Kazumi Matsui nor Prime Minister Fumio Kishida ever mentioned the United States as the country that carried out this strike in August 1945. This is reported by TASS.

The agency recalls that in previous years, the Japanese prime ministers and mayors of the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which were subjected to American nuclear bombardments, in their speeches at memorial ceremonies on the occasion of related anniversaries also did not point to The United States.

The United States dropped atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, respectively, on August 6 and 9, 1945, and still does not recognize its moral responsibility for this, justifying the bombing by "military necessity."
