Overseas Network, August 10th According to Japan’s “Dailynews“, South Korea’s “Hankyoreh” reported on the 10th that the date for the discharge of Fukushima nuclear contaminated water is approaching. The Japanese government recently stated that it has gradually deepened its trust relationship with fisheries personnel on this matter. Fukushima fishery personnel expressed strong dissatisfaction with this statement, and retorted that the government “opened its mouth”.

The Japanese government announced on the 7th that government officials are currently strengthening dialogue with various regions in Japan, and the relationship of trust between the government and fishery personnel is deepening. In this regard, Nozaki Tetsu, president of the Fukushima Prefecture Fisheries Cooperative Association, criticized, “If the government really thinks so, we can’t help it. We really don’t know where they came to such a conclusion.”

On the 8th, Nozaki Tetsu held talks with Japanese Minister of Reconstruction Hiromichi Watanabe and reiterated his opposition to the discharge of nuclear contaminated water into the sea. He said, “The government has made an agreement with the fishery personnel that without the understanding of the relevant people, it will not implement any measures related to the discharge of sewage into the sea. I hope the government can allow the fishery to continue to exist, and make a prudent judgment on this premise.” Others attending the talks People also expressed their opinions, questioning how the government can ensure the safety during the discharge of nuclear-contaminated water.

A number of Japanese government sources previously revealed that the Japanese government plans to formally decide the date for the discharge of Fukushima nuclear contaminated water after the US-Japan-Korea summit on August 18, and the discharge of sewage into the sea may start at the end of August at the earliest. The move has sparked strong opposition in Japan and abroad. In the past few days, people from many countries have continued to speak out, criticizing Japan’s actions will seriously endanger the global marine environment, ecosystems and the lives and health of people in all countries, which is extremely irresponsible.
