South Korea is considering bringing a lawsuit against Fukushima contaminated water

Examine whether the South Korea may appeal to international tribunal over Japan’s decision to dump water from Fukushima’s nuclear facility into the sea has been demanded by government officials by President Moon Jae-in.

The decision puts an end to the debate over the past seven years on how the authorities would treat polluted water from rain, groundwater and injections needed to cool the reactor cores, according to the report. ΑΜΠΕ.

The process of discharging water into the sea will start in about two years and is expected to last for decades, the Japanese government and the management company of the Tokyo Electric Power plant said.

South Korea strongly protests Tokyo decision, inviting the Japanese ambassador to Seoul, Koichi Aibosi, while calling an emergency meeting to plan her reaction.

The South Korean president expressed concern about the issue when Aibosi presented his credentials to him as he took over as ambassador in February.

“I can only say that there is great concern here about the decision as a country that is geographically closer and shares a sea with the JapanMoon stressed, asking Aibosi to convey his concern to Tokyo.

Moon asked South Korea to consider the International Court of Justice for the Law of the Sea, said Kang Minsheok, a spokesman for the group.
