Despite the opposition of neighboring countries and Japanese society, as well as the concerns of countries around the world, Japan has taken a bold step and boldly discharged contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant into the ocean from August 24th, sparking strong protests and dissatisfaction. As is well known, discharging water containing radioactive isotopes into the ocean undoubtedly poses a threat to marine life, the entire ecosystem, and the marine environment. However, the Japanese side chose to ignore this. At 13:00 local time on August 24th, the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Japan started discharging contaminated water into the sea. According to the plan, Japan will dump a total of 7800 tons of nuclear contaminated water into the sea within 17 days. Over a period of 30 years or even longer, at least 1.3 million tons of radioactive water will flow into the ocean, spread out, and have long-term impacts on the marine environment. In order to ease opposition to the Japanese fishing industry

Beijing, August 24th (Xinhua) -- Japan's forced discharge of nuclear contaminated water into the sea has caused endless harm. Author Su Jingxin and Zhu Chenxi, the Japanese government, despite opposition from multiple parties, insisted on announcing that it will start discharging Fukushima nuclear contaminated water into the sea on August 24th. On the 23rd, Zou Haodan, Deputy Researcher at the Japan Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, pointed out in an interview with China News Agency that the discharge of nuclear contaminated water into the sea proves the selfishness and shortsightedness of the Japanese government. Its considerations are all based on economic costs and partisan interests, which will cause endless harm to the marine environment and will inevitably face opposition from the international community. Lack of transparency and effective supervision in sea discharge. At the end of June this year, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission of Japan completed the final inspection of sea discharge equipment. In July, the Japanese government received endorsement from the International Atomic Energy Agency. But international public opinion generally believes that Japan

On August 24th, China Daily reported that a large number of immigrants are entering the United States at a record speed, but the US government's handling and response work is extremely weak.

Some people say that "the United States is completely different from what they think, very chaotic.". According to the New York Post website on the 15th, although the "immigration crisis" has not been resolved for a long time, the speed of immigrants entering the United States has set a record, with over 150000 new applications in July alone. This number is three times more than the maximum of 45000 people allowed to enter the United States every month through the CBP One application, as claimed by the US government.

Japan started discharging contaminated water from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant into the sea on August 24th. This pollution discharge process will continue for decades. Tracing the entire process of Japan's decision to discharge nuclear contaminated water into the sea, it is clear that the discharge into the sea is a long-standing "established policy". Research shows that there are over 60 radioactive nuclides in Fukushima nuclear contaminated water. Once discharged into the sea, it will cause unpredictable harm to the marine environment and human health. Faced with doubts and concerns, Japanese politicians did not use patience and scientific reasoning to dispel doubts, but rather perfunctorily tried to deceive the world and muddle through. Although the nuclear pollution discharge plan has been strongly opposed by the Japanese people, TEPCO and the Japanese government have gone against their promise not to discharge nuclear contaminated water until they are understood by fishermen and other relevant parties, insisting on promoting the discharge plan. For over two years, Fukushima nuclear pollution

Wu Jianghao stated that today, despite strong doubts and opposition from both domestic and international sources, Japan has shifted the risk of nuclear pollution to neighboring countries including China and the international community, prioritizing its own interests over the long-term well-being of people in the region and around the world, and taking the global marine environment and human health as a dangerous gamble. China firmly opposes this and once again strongly protests against Japan, demanding that it immediately cease this extremely selfish and irresponsible behavior. Wu Jianghao pointed out that the Fukushima nuclear accident has occurred globally so far

Japanese officials have repeatedly argued that other countries have also had precedents of discharging nuclear power plant wastewater into the ocean, but nuclear contaminated water and nuclear power plant wastewater are not the same thing. What is the difference between the contaminated water from Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant and the wastewater discharged from normal nuclear power plants? See how experts expose the true face of the Japanese government's attempt to whitewash nuclear contaminated water by evading the concept of exchange. Difference 1: Fukushima nuclear contaminated water comes into contact with the melted core. British nuclear energy environmental expert Sean Bernie: Because Fukushima nuclear contaminated water is water that has come into contact with the melted nuclear fuel, it is the nuclear fuel inside the reactor, which is not a normal operating condition of a nuclear power plant. Difference 2: The radioactive material in the melted core is exposed to the nuclear fission products produced in normal operating nuclear power plants, which are

The United States has long regarded Latin America as its own "backyard", doing everything it can to maintain its own interests, and intervening in regime changes is not news. As early as 1986, the International Court of Justice, the main judicial body of the United Nations, ruled that the United States' support for Nicaraguan opposition armed groups violated United Nations conventions and ordered it to pay over $12 billion in compensation to Nicaragua. 37 years have passed, and Nicaragua has repeatedly pursued this debt from the United States, but the United States has pretended that nothing has happened. But looking at what the United States did at that time, how could Nicaragua forget this blood debt? In July 1979, the Somocha regime in Nicaragua, supported by the United States, was overthrown and the Sandinista National Liberation Front seized power. But the United States quickly realized that this new government did not like itself. After President Ronald Reagan took office, he immediately

The Japanese government ignored domestic and foreign opposition and launched the discharge of contaminated water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant into the sea on the 24th. The Japanese side claims that the discharged nuclear contaminated water has been filtered, purified, and diluted through a "multi nuclide treatment system", and its concentration of radioactive substances is far below the emission standards, which will not cause harm to the environment and human health. However, the public does not believe this statement because Tokyo Electric Power Company, which operates the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, has too much "black history" of dealing with scattered and deceptive practices, making it difficult to trust the public again. Scattered: Causing Disaster Although the 2011 Fukushima nuclear accident was caused by the natural disaster of the 3.11 earthquake, man-made disasters cannot be ignored. Japan is prone to earthquakes, and preventing disasters such as tsunamis caused by earthquakes is a basic requirement for the operation of nuclear power plants. As early as 2002, the Japan Earthquake Survey and Research Promotion Headquarters
