A moment to remember,
in what's left of Soma City, Japan.
United Nations Secretary-General
Ban Ki-moon
visited the country Monday,
where he once-again
pledged his solidarity
to those affected by March's
devastating earthquake
and tsunami.
Visiting a shelter for evacuees
of the Fukushima nuclear disaster,
the Secretary-General
told the people
that "the world was behind them."
He also met with Japanese
Prime Minister Naoto Kan,
saying that Japan would continue
to have the support of the UN
and the International community.
And to the people of Japan,
who battle adversity every day
to help rebuild their country,
he gave special credit.
"While I was struck and saddened
by the level of destruction,
I have seen such a strong will
and unbreakable spirit
and determination and resilience
of Japanese people
and I'm sure that Japan will be able
to overcome this very soon."
