Japan has reacted to US Republican Senator Lindsey Graham's reference to the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki while calling for his country to continue its arms support to Israel.
After saying, "When we were faced with destruction as a nation after Pearl Harbor, we decided to end the war by bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki with nuclear weapons, and that was the right decision," Lindsey made the following scandalous call:
"Give Israel the bombs they need to end the war."
Japanese Foreign Minister Yoko Kamikawa stated in a press release that she found Graham's comparison over the weekend regarding the necessity of providing arms to Israel to be "unacceptable."
As reported by AA, Minister Kamikawa said, "Given the current situation in the Middle East, it is absolutely unacceptable to bring up a discussion that uses the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki as an example."
Describing Graham's assessment as "incompatible with the spirit of humanity and highly unfortunate," the Japanese Minister emphasized that the "catastrophes" of Hiroshima and Nagasaki "must never be repeated" and stated that her country aims to "promote a correct understanding of the devastating reality" of nuclear weapons.
