Solomon Islands ‘Appalled’ By Japan On Fukushima Water

The leader of the Solomon Islands, who has cultivated strong ties with China, joined Beijing on Friday in condemning Japan’s release of wastewater from the damaged Fukushima nuclear plant.

Speaking at the United Nations General Assembly, Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare expressed his “appalled” at the decision and voiced concerns about its potential impact on his South Pacific nation.

“If this nuclear wastewater is safe, it should be stored in Japan. The fact that it’s dumped into the ocean shows that it is not safe,” he asserted.

He further emphasized, “The effect of this act is transboundary and intergenerational and is an attack on global trust and solidarity,”

Sogavare called upon Japan to halt the discharge “immediately” and explore alternative solutions, Barrons reported.
