Correct. Japan tried to surrender twice before the nukes were dropped with the only condition that they could keep their emperor and the US said no. Nukes were dropped and the US agreed to the surrender and they got to keep their emperor. The US wanted to see the damage done to civilian target, see above for what Putin said. "Coincidently," Hiroshima just happened to be the center of Christianity in Japan at the time.
