# Hiroshima’s mayor, Kazumi Matsui, says US president Donald Trump should visit the Japannese city to see the effects of nuclear weapons. This comes after Trump likened the 1945 atomic bombings to recent air strikes on Iran. Matsui says Trump should visit the bombed area to see the reality and feel the spirit of Hiroshima, and then make statements. The United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, and then another on Nagasaki three days later. Shortly afterwards, Japan surrendered, ending World War Two.
