As Japan restarts its nuclear industry, the country is also marking the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II and the American atomic bombs that devastated Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The anniversary revived the debate over President Truman’s decision to use nuclear weapons, which this past Sunday, Pope Francis seemed to criticize.

During the second world war, after the defeat of Germany and Italy, America moved towards Japan and asked Japan to surrender, but Japan refused to surrender.Thus, America dropped two atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6, 1945, and August 9, 1945, respectively.  After this, Japan surrendered to America on August 10, 1945.
