Actually, the Nagasaki memorial issue has worsened. Canada, France, Germany, Italy, and the United Kingdom will also not be attending. Evidently it is more important to stand with Palestinian genocide than commemorate atomic genocide. Reuters refers to it as an embarrassment to the Nagasaki mayor. I would flip that assessment to it being an embarrassment to the non attending nations.

An embarrassment is not strong enough. It's an affront to humanity, decency, and the necessary contrition that the US perpetrators need to never stop showing for their use of atomic weapons on two Japanese cities.
