Japan’s Prime Minister ate fish caught off Fukushima’s coast on Wednesday to alleviate fears after the controversial release of water from the disabled Ōkuma nuclear power station.
Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and three Cabinet ministers enjoyed sashimi fished off the coast of Fukushima at a lunch meeting on Wednesday, in an apparent effort to dispel safety concerns following the release of treated radioactive wastewater from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Plant.
According to Economy and Industry Minister Yasutoshi Nishimura, who was at the lunch meeting, Kishida and the three lawmakers sat down to a spread of flounder, octopus and seabass as well as boiled pork, fruits and various vegetables in the leader’s office.
“We eat in support of the Sanriku Joban region. All seafood items from Sanriku Joban are full of appeal,” Kishida told reporters who were invited to film the meal.
You literally get more radiation exposure flying from LA to NYC than you would from spending a year with your only beverage being water they are releasing. I don’t see you advocating for people to not fly cross country in order to reduce their exposure. Sounds like we got a shill for Big Plane right here.
