The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the Japanese anti-nuclear group Nihon Hidankyo, a grassroots movement of atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki, also known as Hibakusha, at a ceremony in Oslo, Norway on Friday. This year's prize is a testament to the tireless efforts of Nihon Hidankyo, a group that has been fighting for nuclear disarmament and world peace for decades.
Nihon Hidankyo, which translates to Japan Confederation of A- and H-Bomb Sufferers Organizations, was formed in 1956 by survivors of the atomic bombings in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. The group's mission is to work towards a world free of nuclear weapons and to provide support to Hibakusha, who have been struggling with the physical and emotional aftermath of the bombings.
The Nobel Committee praised Nihon Hidankyo for its unwavering dedication to nuclear disarmament and its efforts to raise awareness about the devastating effects of nuclear war. The committee also recognized the group's work in promoting international cooperation and dialogue on nuclear disarmament, and its support for the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.
Nihon Hidankyo has been a vocal advocate for nuclear disarmament, organizing protests and rallies, and lobbying governments to take action. The group has also worked closely with international organizations and NGOs to promote nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation.
The Nobel Peace Prize is a significant recognition of the group's efforts, and a tribute to the Hibakusha who have dedicated their lives to promoting peace and nuclear disarmament. The prize is also a call to action, highlighting the need for continued efforts towards a world free of nuclear weapons.
In a statement, Nihon Hidankyo welcomed the Nobel Peace Prize, saying that it was a recognition of the group's efforts to promote peace and nuclear disarmament. The group also reiterated its commitment to continuing its work towards a world free of nuclear weapons.
