Japanese Defense minister, Fumio Kyuma has paid for the cynical statements in occasion of nuclear bombardment of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Several days ago in his interview to local mass-media Fumio Kyuma has declared, that bombardment of the Japanese cities in August, 1945 was “the inevitable termination of the Second World War”. Moreover, he has added, that he does not hold harm on Americans as their actions have prevented the USSR to grasp Japan.
Already next day Fumio Kyuma, who is also the native of Hiroshima, has been compelled to make public apologies for his words. He has declared that his statement was erroneous, as about 250 thousand peace inhabitants have suffered because of the bombardment.
However, the minister could not have extinguished the scandal. In the result of the criticism from citizens of Japan, who managed to go through bombardment, he ought to apply for resignation.
The nuclear bomb has been dumped to Hiroshima on August, 6th, 1945. Three days later another bomb has been dumped on city Nagasaki. Then barbarous bombardment was explained as the aspiration to deduce Japan from war though actually its main purpose was demonstration of the American weapon of mass destruction to the Soviet management.
Even now bombardment of Hiroshima and Nagasaki remains a unique case of fighting application of the nuclear weapon.
