Germany's Annalena Baerbock calls for world without nuclear weapons

Following her trip to Indonesia for G20 and a stop-off in Palau, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock arrived in Japan.

Report informs, citing Deutsche Welle, that she visited the nuclear hit city of Nagasaki.

Germany's Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock arrived in the Japanese city of Nagasaki on Sunday, following her attendance at the G20 summit in Indonesia on Friday and a brief stop in the Pacific Island nation of Palau on Saturday.

Baerbock visited the Atomic Bomb Museum in the city that was hit by a US nuclear bomb on August 9, 1945, where she laid a wreath in memory of the 70,000 people who were killed.

It is one of the only two cities, along with Hiroshima, to ever be hit by a nuclear weapon.

The two stand "like no other place for absolute annihilation and war, and as a symbol for the warning against the use of nuclear weapons," the German foreign minister said.

She called for a world without such destructive weapons and said the German government supports disarmament, "even if the current global situation is quite different."
