/ world today news/ Yesterday, the Japanese newspaper “Asahi Shinbun” reported that, according to several official sources, the government plans to start dumping water contaminated with radioactive elements from the Fukushima nuclear power plant into the ocean at the end of August.
On July 31, civil activists from Japan and South Korea held a rally in front of the Japanese Prime Minister’s residence in Tokyo, protesting the plan of the government and the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPKO) to dump the radioactive water into the ocean.
Recently, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said that Tokyo’s plan for the contaminated water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant is facing doubts among the international community about its legality and safety. She called on the Japanese government to heed the legitimate concerns of neighboring countries and its citizens and halt the plan immediately.
