China has recently announced the suspension of its imports of Japanese marine products, a decision that comes in response to Tokyo's initiation of treated water discharge from the Fukushima nuclear plant.
After months of escalating global concerns and responses from neighboring countries, Japanese officials have revealed plans to commence the release of treated water from the Fukushima reactor into the ocean today.
Prime Minister Fumio Kishida affirmed that the authorities will move forward with the treated water discharge unless any unforeseen obstacles arise.
This decision follows a governmental cabinet meeting convened to address this pressing issue.
