Continued Anti-Japanese Movements in China Following Contaminated Water Discharge

◀ Anchor ▶

Anti-Japanese movements continue in China after the discharge of contaminated water.

Anti-Japanese slogans rang out at the football stadium, and even graffiti appeared foretelling violence.

The Japanese government protested against China’s ban on imports of seafood from Japan, and said it would consider filing a complaint with the World Trade Organization.

At a stadium where Chinese professional soccer is held, spectators suddenly shout slogans containing hostility toward the Japanese.

″Let’s kill Saorban! Let’s kill Saorven!”

‘Saorbeon’ means ‘Little Japan’ and is a word used to demean Japanese in China.

The owner of an ice cream shop in China picks up only products with Japanese writing on them and throws them on the floor.

This abandoned ice cream is 20,000 yuan, worth 3.6 million won of our money.

″Japanese brands are no longer sold″

Near the Japanese consulate general in Qingdao, graffiti appeared predicting violence against Japanese people.

It is known that there were also eggs or stones thrown at Japanese diplomatic facilities or schools in China.

The Japanese government also said it confirmed that brick fragments flew into the site of the Japanese embassy in Beijing on the 24th, when the release began.

The Japanese National Police Agency announced that as of yesterday morning, there were 225 complaints of complaints from China across the country.

In particular, it was reported that more than 3,000 calls were made to government offices in Fukushima.

The Japanese government, seeing that anti-Japanese sentiment in China has reached a dangerous level, has officially requested an appropriate response from China and ensuring the safety of its citizens in China.

In addition, we are considering filing a complaint with the World Trade Organization and the WTO regarding the ban on imports of seafood from Japan.

″We will continue to take necessary measures under the framework of the WTO against China’s scientifically unfounded import restrictions on Japanese food.″

However, the Chinese government is still dismissing the Japanese side’s request, saying, “The Japanese government’s forced discharge of contaminated water is the cause of the current situation.”
