KCNA issues commentary

The Korean Central News Agency issued a commentary on Japan's crime of discharging "nuclear-polluted water" into sea.

The commentary reads.

Recently the Japanese authorities started again the discharge of nuclear-polluted water into the sea despite strong opposition of the international community.

The discharge of nuclear-polluted water into the sea that started on June 28 and lasts till July 16 is the third time this year, and about 7 800 tons of nuclear-polluted water will flow into the sea in this period.

Japan, which started the discharge of nuclear-polluted water into the sea from last year, plans to discharge it seven times this year. And it will reportedly take about 30 years to discharge all nuclear-polluted water into the sea in this way.

Mankind is bound to face a horrible nuclear disaster due to Japan's shameless and irresponsible discharge of nuclear-polluted water.

This is not an empty talk but a reality that is approaching.

This is well evidenced by such facts giving rise to serious concern that the concentration of tritium (radioactive substance) in seawater near the Fukushima Atomic Power Plant has risen considerably and fishes have been killed in shoals since Japan started the discharge of nuclear-polluted water into the sea.

Nevertheless, Japan is insisting on the "safe management" and "clearly treated water". It is no more than an intolerable far-fetched sophism.

Finally, all the countries and the whole regions in the world are completely exposed to the danger of global nuclear disaster unprecedented in history by the one state Japan nowadays.

Even in the stark reality, Japan has persistently discharged the nuclear-polluted water into the sea for a long time in a bid to make its criminal moves "normal activities" by "immunizing" the international community and evade protest and denunciation focused on Japan.

Japan, which invaded and occupied other countries and nations in the past and inflicted untold misfortune on them, is now bringing another grave disaster to mankind by unhesitatingly discharging a huge amount of dangerous nuclear-polluted water into the sea.

In fact, it is the stereotyped method of the cunning Japanese reactionaries to gradually pull down the "wall" of the international community just like a mouse gnawing a hole, blur the attention of the world people and then switch to a new phase of crimes when it is committing all sorts of crimes such as denying the past history and reviving militarism.

The international community should not tolerate criminal moves seriously threatening the human existence, sharply seeing through the crafty intention of Japan to "dilute" its crimes with its shameless sophism, the "normal discharge of treated water".
