In August of this year, Japan ignoredInternationalAgainst, decided toThe seaThe decision to discharge Fukushima nuclear wastewater has seriously affected the lives of residents in the vicinity of Fukushima and has also harmed the surrounding area of FukushimaFishermenlivelihoods. This act triggeredInternationalThe concern of the society has led the Chinese side to call on the Japanese side to take the compensation claim seriously. China's spokesman Wang Wenbin said at a regular press conference on November 28 that Japan's unilateral decision to discharge Fukushima nuclear sewage into the sea was unprecedentedInternationalSocial consent, and the lack of consultation with neighboring countries, should not have happened in the first place. He stressed that it is the responsibility of the Japanese side to take seriously the demands of stakeholders for compensation and damage determination, and to fully communicate and consult with relevant parties affected by the nuclear discharge. China represented the demands of the stakeholders and also laid the groundwork for claims against Japan.
On March 11, 2011, a magnitude 9 major ** occurred in the Tohoku region of Japan, resulting inFukushima nuclear power plantThe accident became an irreparable disaster in history. Fukushima nuclear power plantMore than 140 tonnes of nuclear sewage are produced every day, accumulating about one million tonnes over more than a decade. There are a variety of ways to treat nuclear wastewater, such as deep underground or evaporation, but these are more costly. In the end, Japan chose the cheaper oneThe seaway. However, the direct discharge of nuclear sewage into the ocean is an unprecedented behavior, and nuclear sewage contains a large number of radioactive elements, which poses an unacceptable safety hazard to the marine ecology. China, South Korea and other Asian neighbors were the first to express their dissatisfaction with this, and thenInternational** It has also become more intense, but Japan has not changed its stance, and Tokyo Electric Power Company launched a plan to discharge nuclear wastewater on August 24. Since the total amount of nuclear sewage reaches 1.37 million tons, it is expected to need to be discharged for more than 30 years, andFukushima nuclear power plantNew nuclear sewage continues to be produced every day.
Judging from the incident itself, Japan's act of discharging nuclear sewage violates the Convention on the Law of the Sea and destroys itInternationalOrder. It is very selfish and irresponsible to discharge nuclear sewage directly into the ocean. In the propaganda of Japan**, they claim that the nuclear sewage has become the so-called "nuclear treated water" after purification, and believe that the ocean area is vast, and the discharge of nuclear sewage by TEPCO is controllable, and the discharge of nuclear sewage will be slowly discharged over a period of 30 years, and the seawater will dilute the nuclear sewage and will have almost no impact on the marine ecology. However, Japan did not realize that the sea was not theirsGarbage dumps, the practice of discharging nuclear sewage into the oceanInternationalThere is no precedent for this, and it is impossible to know whether there will be serious consequences. It was a complete gamble, and Japan was using the whole world as a bargaining chip.
The ocean should not beGarbage dumpsHowever, Japan's erroneous decision was covered by the United States and the West. As influential global powers, the words and actions of Japan and the United States will affect many countries. However, instead of fulfilling their obligations as a great power, they have taken a negative lead. Japan, as the only country in the world to have suffered a nuclear attack, should respondNuclear contaminationThe horror has a deep understanding. However, Japan today seems to have forgotten the wounds of the past, and they have hurt not only their own people, but also the people of the world, pushing the loss and impact of wrongdoing to the whole world. China has taken a firm opposition to Japan's discharge of nuclear sewage and has taken concrete actions to completely ban the import of Japanese aquatic products. However, this is not to close the door to Sino-Japanese friendship, but to urge Japan to return to rationality as soon as possible and establish a comprehensive, effective, and independent long-term monitoring mechanism to prevent itNuclear contaminationWater discharge has irreversible consequences.
The Fukushima nuclear sewage discharge incident has aroused widespread concern and controversy. Japan ignoresInternationalopposition, unilateral decision toThe seaThe discharge of nuclear sewage has seriously damaged the interests of relevant parties and damaged the marine ecological environment. As one of the stakeholders, China firmly opposes Japan's actions and has taken corresponding measures. However, Japan's selfish and irresponsible attitude towards the issue of nuclear sewage is worrying. In dealing with global environmental issues,InternationalCooperation and shared responsibility are very important. States should be more actively involvedEnvironmental protectionJolywood will work together to maintain the ecological balance of the earth and the future development of mankind.
