Thank you very much for sending the paper cranes with the desire for peace. We received them and offered them to the Children’s Peace Monument.
To avoid a repetition of the tragedy that befell many victims who died of the Atomic bombing, we are working to build a peaceful world without nuclear weapons. This will be accomplished not only by our effort, but also by support and cooperation from all over the world. In line with this, we appreciate your action and desire for peace.
I ask that you to continue to keep in your heart Hiroshima’s experience and your hopes for peace.
I close with best wishes for your good health and every success in your activities.
