"It would not be correct to make comparisons... but today I would sincerely say that the images of Hiroshima in ruins really remind me, remind
me absolutely, of Bakhmut and other similar settlements and cities, where there is nothing left, where all the buildings were destroyed, where it is not clear where the streets and houses were, where there is total destruction, where there is nothing left, where there is no one left": said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in response to a question during his speech at the final press conference of the G7.

Zelensky visited today, together with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, the Hiroshima Peace Memorial. The two, as at the opening of the summit all the other leaders of the G7, laid a white wreath of flowers at the cenotaph of the victims of the first atomic bomb dropped on August 6, 1945.
