Geng Shuang, deputy representative of the United Nations, said at the UN General Assembly on Friday (August 25) that the Chinese party called on the international community to jointly urge the Japanese government to immediately stop nuclear waste water.
According to the official website of the Chinese permanent delegation in the United Nations, the UN General Assembly reviewed and approved a resolution on the cooperation between the United Nations and the Pacific Island Forum on Friday.In the speech after the decision was passed, Geng Shuang pointed out on the issue of Fukushima Nuclear Water in Fukushima in Japan. Twelve years ago, a serious accident occurred in the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan and released a large amount of radioactive substances to the ocean, causing huge disasters.Twelve years later, regardless of the questioning and opposition of the international community, the Japanese government forcibly launched nuclear waste water unilaterally, which caused secondary damage to the local people and even the people of the world.
Geng Shuang said that the treatment of nuclear waste water has a multinational effect and is by no means a private matter in Japan.The Japanese side's move ignored the public interest and publicly passed the risk of nuclear pollution to the world, including the Pacific island nation, and was extremely selfish and irresponsible.
He proposed that there is no precedent for artificial wastewater to discharge nuclear accidents to the ocean emissions, and there are no recognized disposal standards.For a long time, the influence of Fukushima Nuclear Water Election Sea on marine environment, food safety and human health has been seriously concerned, and the legitimacy, legality, and safety of the Japanese methods have been widely questioned.
Geng Shuang pointed out that the Japanese side has not resolved the major concern of the international community's long -term reliability of nuclear waste water purification devices, the true accuracy of nuclear waste water data, and the perfect effectiveness of the perfection monitoring scheme.China and other stakeholders have pointed out many times that if nuclear waste water is safe, there is no need to discharge sea. If it is not safe, it should not be discharged.
Geng Shuang said that the Chinese side called on the international community to jointly urge the Japanese government to correct the wrong decision, immediately stop nuclear waste water to discharge the sea, communicate with the relevant countries and interests with a sincere attitude,Wastewater avoids unpredictable damage and harm to the global marine environment and avoiding the health and well -being of the people of the world.
