Nuclear Water Discharge: IAEA Denies Endorsement of Japan “Fukushima” Discharge Plan! (5.7.2023)

The IAEA will have a continued presence at the Fukushima Daiichi plant site to review, monitor and assess the discharge activities for decades to come, Grossi said, adding that whether to allow other countries to participate in the supervision is a decision to be made by the Japanese government.

During Grossi’s press conference, a group of protestors gathered outside the Japan National Press Club to voice opposition to Japan’s ocean discharge plan, shouting “The sea belongs to mankind. Don’t dump polluted water into the sea,” and “No discharge without consent. Keep your promise to the fishermen!”

At the invitation of Japan’s foreign ministry, Grossi started his four-day visit to Japan on Tuesday, including a trip to the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

Palestine: Helping from a Distance – Fighting the Evil of Zionism! (20.6.2023)

The journey toward liberation and true unity begins within us, challenging us to make conscious choices and sacrifices. Diaspora must forge ahead to create the “popular cradle” that supports resistance inside and outside. To feel the fear of repression yet not be deterred, to see the intersections between our struggle and wider movements against imperialism, and to engage in resistance that illuminates the path: these are the steps we need to take.

China: “Do NOT Confuse Hegemony of Navigation with FREEDOM of Navigation!” (5.5.2023)

State Councilor and Defense Minister General Li Shangfu called on Sunday for regional countries to stay highly vigilant and firmly reject the actions of some countries outside the South China Sea, which exercise “hegemony of navigation “in the name of “freedom of navigation”.

He warned that those countries just want to “muddy the waters” of the South China Sea to “rake in profits”.

The defense chief made the remarks in his speech delivered at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, a day after United States Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told the security forum that the US will continue to work with allies and partners to uphold “freedom of navigation and overflight” in the South China Sea.

Covid-19: Chinese Logic Trumps Western Racism! (11.12.2022)

In the past three years, China has equipped itself with technologies and drugs that are proven to be effective in COVID diagnosis and treatment, and also made continuous progress in pathogen detection and epidemiological investigations. Over 90 percent of the population has been fully vaccinated thanks to China’s unceasing efforts in vaccine research and development, while people’s health awareness has also been greatly enhanced.

These aggregated factors have laid a solid foundation for the current epidemic prevention and control work, and provided the precondition for further optimizations.

It is worth noting that China’s fine-tuning of its COVID policy is proactive rather than passive. While advancing the latest optimization plan, China does not shy away from acknowledging the challenges, and is determined to ramp up vaccination efforts among the elderly and increase the capacity of intensive care units (ICU).

Different countries have different national conditions in terms of medical resources and demographic situations, and differ in sociocultural orientation. As the world stands at a crossroads and humanity is faced with COVID-19 as a common enemy, we need to focus on mutual understanding and cooperation, and must let go of ego and bias.

China: Modern Satellite ‘Health’ Technology! (18.4.2022)

This is why, particularly in the post-Covid-19 environment, Socialist China is developing remote technology the function of which is to detect ‘at a distance’ (as ‘early’ as possible) any threats to environmental balance and the health of human populations. If Socialist China can lead the way in environmental and population health monitoring – then Socialist China can assist humanity by sharing this knowledge at the earliest possible opportunity, and fulfil its international responsibilities promptly and effectively!
