“ The threat of nuclear war does exist. However, we firmly believe that, as long as the correct path is followed and the struggle is persisted in, this threat can be eliminated, atomic and hydrogen bombs can be prohibited, and peace in the Far East and the world can be upheld. Nuclear weapons threaten both you and us. Our two nations' peoples are siblings. Regardless of how complex the situation may be, the Chinese people will always stand firmly with the Japanese people in demanding the prohibition of nuclear weapons. ”

“ The people of Japan, who have experienced the calamity of nuclear weapons, have consistently stood at the forefront of the brave struggle against nuclear weapons of the world's people. The annual World Conference against A and H Bombs, initiated by the Japanese people and held in Japan, effectively reflects the hopes and demands for peace from people of various countries. The struggle of the Japanese people, as well as the people of all countries, exerts strong pressure against imperialist policies involving nuclear threats pursued by the United States. ”

“ The Chinese government and people firmly believe that nuclear weapons must be comprehensively, thoroughly, clearly and unequivocally prohibited and destroyed. Effective measures that can be agreed upon by all parties must be taken to eliminate the threat of nuclear war. ”
