Washington, May 11 (IBNS) US President Barrack Obama will become the first sitting US President to make a visit to Hiroshima, the site of US atomic bomb attack in Japan during World War II, reports said.

Reports said that the POTUS will not apologise for the bombings, but will look to remind everyone what a nuclear war can do.

CNN quoted Obama's deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes as saying, "He will not revisit the decision to use the atomic bomb at the end of World War II. Instead, he will offer a forward-looking vision focused on our shared future.   

Obama's visit is scheduled for May 27.

He is expected to deliver key address involving nuclear non-proliferation, one of his key agenda under US foreign policy.

Obama will visit the Peace Memorial Park in Hiroshima.
