Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will go to the United States next week to meet with the leaders of the United States and South Korea and explain to them the safety of nuclear sewage. A Japanese government source pointed out that shortly thereafter, the Japanese government may directly discharge nuclear sewage into the sea.
Reuters quoted Japan’s “Asahi Shimbun” on August 7 as saying that a Japanese government source revealed that the Japanese government is expected to start discharging the treated nuclear contaminated water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant into the sea as early as late August.
According to a report by Japan’s Jiji News Agency on the 7th, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida will go to the United States on August 18 to meet with US President Biden and South Korean President Yoon Seok-yue, and explain to them the safety of nuclear sewage. After returning to Japan, Fumio Kishida is expected to discuss the matter with relevant ministers and make a formal decision on the detailed time for the discharge of nuclear sewage.
According to reports, Japan’s bottom trawling operation is planned to start in September in the waters near Fukushima, and the government’s goal is to start discharging nuclear sewage before the fishing season starts. Japan’s nuclear regulator approved in August the operator of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, Tokyo Electric Power Company, to start discharging nuclear sewage.
According to previous reports, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) released a comprehensive assessment report on Japan’s Fukushima nuclear-contaminated water disposal on July 4, arguing that Japan’s sea discharge plan “generally complies with international safety standards.” Strong opposition from neighboring countries.
According to the British “Guardian” report, about 1.3 million tons of nuclear sewage stored in the on-site water storage tank of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant has been filtered through the Advanced Liquid Treatment System (Alps) of the Japan Electric Power Company, and the “treated” nuclear sewage will be collected from seawater. Diluted and discharged into the ocean 1 km away from the coastline through the subsea tunnel.
On July 20, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said at a regular press conference that the Japanese government has recently launched global public relations on the issue of the discharge of Fukushima nuclear contaminated water into the sea, trying to use special funds to block the Japanese people who oppose the discharge. At the mouth, I tried to use the comprehensive assessment report of the International Atomic Energy Agency as a pass, and put on the posture that it is imperative to discharge the sea.
“If the nuclear-contaminated water is safe, there is no need to discharge it into the sea. If it is unsafe, it should not be discharged into the sea.” Mao Ning pointed out that the legitimacy, legality and safety of Japan’s nuclear-contaminated water discharge plan have been well received by the international community. Doubts, no matter how much the Japanese side pretends to be wrong, it will not be able to whitewash the sea discharge plan, as evidenced by successive protests from neighboring countries and voices of doubt from all walks of life in Japan.
