GENEVA, July 10 (Xinhua) — China on Monday as soon as once more urged Japan to cease its plan to discharge nuclear-contaminated water into the ocean on the ongoing 53rd session of the UN Human Rights Council.
The UN Human Rights Council on Monday adopted the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) end result of Japan. Speaking within the dialogue on the UPR end result of Japan, a Chinese diplomat emphasised that China as soon as once more urges Japan to cease the plan to discharge nuclear-contaminated water into the ocean.
The Chinese diplomat urged Japan to get rid of it in a science-based, protected and clear method, and cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to place in place a long-term worldwide monitoring mechanism involving Japan’s neighbors and different stakeholders as quickly as potential.
The diplomat identified that out of financial price concerns, Japan ignored the issues and opposition of the worldwide group, and its steady discharge of thousands and thousands of tons of Fukushima nuclear-contaminated water into the ocean within the subsequent 30 years is the equal of treating the Pacific Ocean like a “sewer.”
