GOVERNOR’S OFFICE: Statement on historic Pearl Harbor visit of President Obama and Prime Minister Abe

Posted on Dec 27, 2016 in Latest Department News, Newsroom, Office of the Governor Press Releases

Today we saw President Obama and Prime Minister Abe stand together at Pearl Harbor. They honored the bravery and courage demonstrated in this sacred place 75 years ago. Most importantly, they both delivered a message of tolerance, reconciliation and peace. I know the people of Hawaiʻi join me and our national leaders in committing to a continued partnership that benefits our state and both nations.

 

— Governor David Y. Ige
