PUBLIC MEETING WITH THE MAYOR OF NAGASAKIA TALK A NUCLEAR FREE WORLD

The long running controversial subject of Nuclear Weapons comes to the fore in Aberdeen next week when the Mayor of Nagasaki will be speaking on behalf of a nuclear free world. Tomihisa Taue, Mayor of Nagasaki and Vice President of Mayors for Peace will be talking about the effects of the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki on August 9th 1945. In the initial explosion and over the succeeding years over 200,000 of Nagasaki’s men women and children died agonisingly either from blast, burns, crushed limbs and bodies and latterly of leukemia, cancers and other tumours.

Mayors for Peace has over four thousand member cities in one hundred and forty four countries world-wide – sixty two of which are in the UK.
