Germany capitulated on WW2 on 8 May 1945. Hiroshima was nuked on 6 August 1945, 90 days later.

Was the public reaction one of relieve, since germany could also have been nuked by that weapon if the war lasted any longer for the third Reich? Where any public statements made by german politicians or articles written on the topic of the Hiroshima bomb in german media at the time? How did imprisoned Nazis in Nürnberg process prison react to the message, did they even receive it? Was the reaction different in the soviet occupied areas?
