António Guterres Instagram – In Japan, paper cranes like this one symbolize the hope for a future without nuclear weapons.
79 years ago, nuclear weapons devastated the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Nuclear weapons, and the threat of their use, are not confined to history books. The lessons of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which once guided our collective efforts towards disarmament and peace, have been pushed aside.
We must never allow such devastation again. The only way to eliminate the nuclear risk is to eliminate nuclear weapons.
