The Fukushima nuclear sewage discharge plan was not supported by Japanese politicians at the recently held G-7 summit. The summit’s joint statement only stated “support for an independent investigation by the International Atomic Energy Agency”. This result is not surprising. Germany and other countries have always opposed it. German Environment Minister Steffi Lemke also protested, saying in a press conference that “the discharge of nuclear sewage into the ocean is not welcome”. Provided food, wine and snacks produced in Fukushima Prefecture so that countries can “further understand the ocean discharge plan.” Prior to this, Fukushima food had been repeatedly detected to contain highly radioactive substances. So Japan’s reaction to this move is one to imagine. Japan’s Kyoto news agency acknowledged in a report on May 20 that the use of Fukushima food at the G-7 summit “caused controversy.” The report also quoted senior members of South Korea’s opposition party as saying, “The use of controversial material itself reflects Japan’s arrogance.” , Then to the Pacific Island countries, people have strongly opposed this plan and demanded the Japanese side to deal with it properly. During the G-7 summit, people protested in many places in Japan and criticized Japan that “discharging nuclear sewage into the sea is an international crime!” Why has it become Because more and more studies have shown that the damage caused by this behavior to marine ecology and human health is immeasurable. Fukushima nuclear-contaminated water contains at least 60 types of radionuclides, and its concentration is very high. At present it cannot be completely filtered and decomposed by technology. Greenpeace and experts have also recently pointed out that Japan has “fabricated a series of lies” to the international community for its own politics and finances, which are irresponsible actions. Currently, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Has not yet released the final evaluation report on Japan’s sea discharge plan, but the Japanese government claimed that the sea discharge project will be completed by the end of June and will be officially launched into the Pacific Ocean at the end of July. As the only country affected by nuclear weapons, Japan should have a deeper understanding and more actual experience of nuclear radiation and nuclear hazards than other countries. But some Japanese politicians only have economic plans in mind, have no concern for its long-term consequences, and do not care about its impact on all mankind and future generations.(Credits-China Media Group, Beijing)
