Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, April 7 (Reporters Yuan Rui and Cheng Xin) Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said on the 7th that China's position on opposing Japan's discharge of nuclear-polluted water has never changed. It will continue to work with the international community and the International Atomic Energy Agency and other relevant professional organizations to urge Japan to fulfill its commitments and ensure that the discharge of sea is under international supervision.
At the regular press conference on the same day, a reporter asked: It is reported that in February this year, Chinese experts went to Japan's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant to independently collect samples of Fukushima nuclear polluted water. The test results have been obtained recently. Can you introduce the specific situation?
"After learning from relevant departments, Chinese scientific research institutions have completed the detection and analysis of samples of seawater, marine organisms, etc. that were independently collected in the waters near the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant in Japan in February this year. There was no abnormality in the activity concentrations of radionuclides such as tritium, cesium-134, cesium-137, strontium-90 in the samples." Lin Jian said that in the future, relevant Chinese testing data will be submitted to the International Atomic Energy Agency for unified summary and release.
"China has repeatedly pointed out that there is no abnormality in the single test result, which cannot guarantee that there will be no problem in future testing," said Lin Jian.
Lin Jian said that in the Sino-Japanese high-level economic dialogue held recently, Japan reiterated its acceptance of long-term international monitoring of the sea and China's independent sampling monitoring, and confirmed the continued implementation of the above-mentioned monitoring activities.
"China's position on opposing Japan's discharge of nuclear-polluted water has never changed. We will continue to work with the international community and the International Atomic Energy Agency and other relevant professional organizations to urge Japan to fulfill its commitments and ensure that the discharge of sea is under international supervision." He said.
