Obama will not apologize for nuclear bomb while in Hiroshima

Asked whether he would apologize, Omaba said:

“No, because I think that it’s important to recognize that in the midst of war, leaders make all kinds of decisions."

“It’s a job of historians to ask questions and examine them, but I know as somebody who has now sat in this position for the last seven and a half years, that every leader makes very difficult decisions, particularly during wartime," said he.

A total of 140,000 people were killed by the first nuclear bomb thrown at Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. Three days later, a second was used against the city of Nagasaki, killing 74,000.
