The accusations of the head of the European Commission (EC) Ursula von der Leyen against Russia related to the tragedy in Hiroshima, Japan in 1945, are false. About it stated official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova in her Telegram channel.
Zakharova recalled the speech of the head of the EC on September 21 during the presentation of awards from the NATO analytical center to Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.
“Von der Leyen gave a pretty remarkable speech. <...> I remembered that his family [Кисиды] originally from Hiroshima and during the nuclear bombing in 1945, his relatives died there. Not a word about the United States and the Washington executioners who dropped bombs on Japanese cities and civilians. But the defendant in the largest corruption scandals in the history of the EU went further – she blamed the tragedy of Hiroshima… on Russia,” she wrote.
Zakharova also cited the words of the Chairman of the EC, where she, speaking about the Hiroshima tragedy, said that “Russia is threatening to use nuclear weapons again.” Von der Leyen said that “it is dangerous and under the shadow [в контексте] Hiroshima is unforgivable.”
“It’s disgusting and dangerous how Ursula von der Leyen lies,” Zakharova said.
The US Air Force dropped the “Little Boy” and “Fat Man” atomic bombs on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in western Japan on August 6 and 9, 1945, in the final stages of World War II. The atomic bombings of two Japanese cities, which killed a total of 214,000 people, were the only cases in history where nuclear weapons were used in combat.
