As you probably know, the Group of Seven is meeting in Hiroshima, Japan. Japan's Prime Minister Kishida's family is from Hiroshima. It was also chosen to highlight nuclear nonproliferation efforts in a time when there are threats and the possiblity of nuclear aggression in the world. PM Kishida greeted the leaders from the G7 at the city's Peace Memorial Park on Friday and escorted them to pay respects to those who died. In addition, the group saw exhibits at the Peace Museum and met with an atomic bombing survivor. Sunday the Prime Minister will do the same for leaders from guest nations. I hope that seeing in person what nuclear weapons can do, will make a difference in the direction these world leaders take.
