It is reported that Tokyo Electric Power Company of Japan has basically completed the seabed excavation construction of the discharge outlet of nuclear polluted water, and the Japan Atomic Energy Regulatory Commission is expected to formally approve the Dongdian sea discharge plan as soon as this month. In this regard, foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said at a regular press conference on July 19 that Japan's practice of ignoring domestic public opinion and international concerns is very irresponsible. China urges Japan to carefully listen to the advice of the international community and not to start the discharge of nuclear polluted water into the sea without authorization. Zhao Lijian said that following the foreign ministers' meeting of the Pacific Islands Forum a week ago, Pacific island countries once again expressed strong concern at the leadership level about the discharge of Japan's nuclear polluted water into the sea, and reiterated that international consultation, international law and independent and verifiable scientific assessment should be ensured. This is also the common voice of Pacific coastal countries, including China. He said that for more than a year, the Japanese government and Tokyo Electric Power Company of Japan have never made a fully credible explanation on the legitimacy of the sea discharge scheme of Fukushima nuclear polluted water, the reliability of nuclear polluted water data, the effectiveness of purification devices, and the uncertainty of environmental impact. Although the International Atomic Energy Agency has not completed a comprehensive assessment, Japan continues to promote the approval process of the sea discharge plan and the construction of the sea discharge project. Japan's disregard for domestic public opinion and international concerns is very irresponsible. "In the face of more and more objections, we advise Japan not to hide its ears, carefully listen to the advice of the international community, revoke the wrong decision to discharge nuclear polluted water into the sea, and comprehensively evaluate various nuclear polluted water disposal plans. Before full consultation and agreement with stakeholders and relevant international institutions, Japan must not start discharging nuclear polluted water into the sea without authorization. This is the touchstone to test whether Japan can fulfill its international responsibilities." Zhao Lijian said. (Xinhua News Agency)
