Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says nation has 'fundamentally changed' in year since gunman killed 51 people at two mosques.
NZ prime minister on terror suspect: 'He will ... remain nameless'
Ardern was in Christchurch attending events to mark the anniversary of last year's March 15 massacre, which she has described as one of New Zealand's darkest days. On Friday she attended a special joint prayer with members of both mosques that were attacked, and on Sunday she plans to attend a national memorial.
Ardern said people had told her they had visited mosques for the first time in the wake of the attacks and had found themselves more openly discussing differences of faith. Ardern said that with only five confirmed cases of COVID-19 in New Zealand, there were no signs yet of a community outbreak. She said the Pasifika Festival was canceled out of a specific concern the virus could spread to Pacific islands that don't have the health infrastructure to cope with an outbreak.
