President Obama will also accompany Prime Minister Abe to the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor where the two will honor those killed in the war. The two leaders’ visit will showcase the power of reconciliation that has turned former adversaries into the closest of allies, united by common interests and shared values. Congresswoman Hanabusa: The visit by the Japanese Prime Minister to Pearl Harbor just over 75 years after Japan’s attack in 1941 is historic and symbolic of the strong relationship President Obama has forged with Prime Minister Abe and the people of Japan. President Obama’s historic visit to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum and Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park last May opened the door for greater healing and deeper reconciliation between the two countries. Prime Minister Abe’s visit to Pearl Harbor on December 27th will honor the 75th Commemoration of Pearl Harbor taking place this Wednesday, December 7, 2016, in Hawaii. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
