The United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) joins with other UN Agencies around the world in expressing its condolences to the people of Japan following the devastating earthquake and subsequent tsunami which struck on 11 March 2011. We also echo the United Nations Secretary-General’s remarks expressing his condolences to those who have lost family and friends (SG/SM/13437). Through its office in Hiroshima, Japan, UNITAR will be monitoring the situation as it develops.
