Japan threatened on Tuesday to take China to the World Trade Organization (WTO) to seek a reversal of Beijing's ban on all of its seafood imports after the release of treated radioactive water from the stricken Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

    Are they wrong though? I definitely wouldn’t want to eat that fish. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jul/24/fukushima-fish-with-180-times-legal-limit-of-radioactive-cesium-fuels-water-release-fears

    It’s already pretty telling that Japan is trying to export it when they’re a huge seafood consumer themselves to the point where they rely on imports

    Why want to get rid of Fukushima fish when it’s supposedly safe to eat?
