Protestors organized a march from the Kyoto city administration building to the Maruyama Park. Organizers alleged that the summit, which is set to be held in Hiroshima on May 19-21, aims to shift the focus of US policy from China and Japan's increasing military budget. 

Protestors chanted: "No to the Summit! Do not come to Hiroshima".
