Last year's Nobel Peace Prize-winning Japanese atomic bomb survivor organization issued a statement on Thursday, criticizing Prime Minister Sanae Tōdō for attempting to review the country's three principles of being nuclear-free.

The organization stated in its statement that it strongly protested Sanae Tōdō's reversal of the government's long-standing position and called for a debate on revising this stance.

Previously, it was reported that Sanae Tōdō is considering reviewing Japan's long-standing principle of not possessing nuclear weapons, which would mark a major shift in Japan's security policy.
