New generation must take up fight against nuclear weapons, Nobel laureate group says

 Young people must take up the fight for a nuclear-free world, with such
weapons many times more powerful than in the past, a representative for
this year’s Nobel Peace Prize laureate, an atomic bomb survivors’ group,
said Tuesday. Nihon Hidankyo, a grassroots movement of survivors of the
1945 nuclear bombings of Japanese cities Hiroshima and Nagasaki, is
campaigning for a world free of nuclear weapons using witness testimony.

The average age of Japan’s atomic bomb survivors is now 85, Terumi Tanaka,
a co-chair of the group, said when accepting the prize at a ceremony held
at Oslo City Hall attended by Norway’s King Harald, Queen Sonja and other
dignitaries.
