China News Service, Beijing, May 25 (Huang Yuqin) In response to Japan’s nuclear sewage discharge, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said at a regular press conference on the 25th that the dangerous decisions made by Japan for its own benefit will harm future generations. Future generations and global ecology.
If the Japanese side does not understand this account, the international community will help it understand it.
A reporter asked questions. The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute held a "Fukushima Nuclear Polluted Water Discharge Expert Conference" last week.
Experts at the meeting agreed that the Japanese government did not provide the international community with a scientific explanation of the composition of nuclear contaminated water, and merely verbally guaranteeing "safety" is not the proper attitude of any responsible member of the international community.
South Korean netizens called for preventing Japan from discharging nuclear contaminated water that "may cause our children to get cancer" into the sea.
What is China's comment?
Zhao Lijian said that it has been ten years since the Fukushima nuclear accident. We did not wait for the Japanese side to take effective measures to prevent nuclear-contaminated water from harming the surrounding ecological environment, but we waited for Japan’s unilateral and wrong decision to dispose of nuclear-contaminated water by discharging the sea. .
We have not seen TEPCO, which was responsible for handling the Fukushima nuclear accident, learn from the disaster, but have seen the media continue to expose TEPCO’s sloppy confusion, concealment, false reporting and tampering of information in nuclear power management.
Zhao Lijian pointed out that Japan’s failure to deal with the Fukushima nuclear accident last time was due to the domestic people and the international community, which forced us to have no choice but to make the so-called safe handling methods reasonable and scientific, as well as the authenticity and truthfulness of the information and data provided. Credibility is a big question mark.
“The dangerous decisions made by Japan for its own benefit will harm future generations and the global ecology. If Japan does not understand this account, the international community will help it understand it.” Zhao Lijian emphasized that if Japan is pretending to be clear Confused, the international community will certainly not agree.
Japan should recognize its own responsibilities and obligations regarding the Fukushima nuclear contaminated water issue, return to the right track of consultations with stakeholders and relevant international institutions, and must not initiate sea-discharge operations without authorization.
