The Japanese government expressed willingness to support France in restoring the Notre Dame Cathedral, while officials and notable figures expressed sadness after Paris’ iconic Catholic church was badly damaged by fire, The Japan Times reports.
“The Japanese government will consider providing support if requested by the French government,” Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga told a news conference.
“It was a loss for the world and we feel deeply sad,” Suga said, referring to the fire at the World Heritage site on Monday, which burned through its roof and caused the toppling of the building’s 90-meter spire.
Japanese celebrities conveyed their sadness and grief about the tragedy.
