2022年两岸关系复杂严峻 国台办:牢牢把握两岸关系主导权和主动权******
在今天(11日)举行的国台办例行新闻发布会上,有记者问,今天是2023年国台办举行首场新闻发布会,请发言人回顾总结2022年两岸关系,并展望2023年两岸关系发展。对此,国台办发言人马晓光表示,2022年,两岸关系复杂严峻。在以习近平同志为核心的党中央坚强领导下,我们牢牢把握两岸关系主导权和主动权,团结两岸同胞推动两岸关系向前发展,对台工作取得新的进展。
马晓光介绍说,我们有力引领两岸关系正确发展方向。党的二十大郑重宣示新时代新征程对台大政方针和决策部署,为做好对台工作提供了根本遵循和行动指南,对推进两岸关系发展与祖国统一进程意义深远。我们发布《台湾问题与新时代中国统一事业》白皮书,举办“九二共识”30周年座谈会、第二届“携手圆梦”主题活动等系列活动,持续向台湾同胞和国际社会讲清台湾问题历史经纬和对台大政方针,党的对台方针政策更加深入人心。
我们积极推动两岸关系和平发展、融合发展。践行以人民为中心的发展思想,始终尊重、关爱、造福台湾同胞,不断完善增进台湾同胞福祉的制度和政策。支持福建等地探索海峡两岸融合发展新路,持续优化涉台营商环境,助力台商台企融入新发展格局、参与高质量发展,全年两岸贸易额和台商来大陆投资保持总体稳定。积极推动两岸交流合作,促进两岸同胞共同弘扬中华优秀传统文化,成功举办第十届海峡论坛、2022两岸企业家峰会年会、两岸青年峰会等600多项两岸重点交流项目。众多台湾同胞在大陆追梦、筑梦、圆梦,“两岸一家亲”的氛围更加浓厚。
我们坚决开展反分裂、反干涉重大斗争。“台独”分裂活动和外部势力干涉是当前台海形势紧张动荡的根源,严重危害中华民族根本利益和台湾同胞切身利益。我们采取系列有力措施,坚决粉碎各种形式的谋“独”挑衅和外来干涉图谋,进一步掌握了实现祖国完全统一的战略主动,进一步巩固了国际社会坚持一个中国的格局。“倚外谋独”“以台制华”不得人心,注定失败。求和平、求稳定、求发展的台湾主流民意更加彰显。
马晓光强调,新的一年,我们将全面贯彻党的二十大精神和新时代党解决台湾问题的总体方略,坚持“和平统一、一国两制”基本方针,坚持一个中国原则和“九二共识”,坚决反对“台独”分裂和外来干涉,坚持团结广大台湾同胞,共同推动两岸关系和平发展、融合发展,推进祖国统一进程,为共创中华民族绵长福祉而携手奋斗。

中新网评:处理核污水绝不是日本自家私事******
中新网北京1月19日电(蒋鲤)日本政府近日称,将于2023年春夏期间开始向海洋排放经过处理的福岛第一核电站核污水。日本罔顾国内民众及周边国家的屡屡反对,企图将核污水“一倒了之”,把一件关乎全球海洋生态环境和公众健康的事当成了自家私事。
资料图:日本福岛第一核电站。2011年,福岛核电站事故发生后,大量放射性物质泄漏到大气层和太平洋,对周围环境造成了难以逆转的伤害,数十万人被迫撤离该地区。时至今日,作为日本邻国之一的韩国仍未解除福岛海鲜禁令。
日本以核污水存储能力即将达到上限为由,在2021年4月13日,正式决定将福岛第一核电站核污水排入太平洋。过去一年多,日本政府和东京电力公司一直在持续推进核污水排海计划。
日本政府辩称,这些核污水经多核素处理系统(ALPS)处理后很安全,甚至“可以喝”,这样的表态无疑在愚弄大众。
事实上,经过处理的核污水仍含有多种放射性物质,核污水一旦排放入海就无法回收,长期来看,将会给海洋生态带来难以估量的潜在威胁,最终危害人类健康。
因此,核污水排海计划推出后,遭到日本民众强烈反对。日本《朝日新闻》2022年3月公布的问卷调查显示,福岛县、宫城县和岩手县受访的42个市町村长中,约六成反对东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污水排放入海。日本全国渔业协会联合会也多次申明立场,反对该计划。
日本政府认为,核污水排海是最便宜、最省事的解决方案,但此举却将周边国家乃至全世界置于核污染风险中。太平洋非日本一家之海,核污水会随着洋流流动,其影响势必会跨越国界,危害周边国家乃至整个国际社会的公共福祉和利益。
《韩国经济新闻》发文称,相关研究认为,福岛核污水如果排放入海,约7个月后将到达济州等韩国海域,该国水产业和旅游业将遭受相当大的损失。
德国南极海洋机构也曾发出警告,若日本将所有核污水排入海中,不到半年,整个太平洋都将面临高度辐射威胁,包括远在大洋另一端的美国。太平洋地区人民更是对日本该计划持反对意见。
日本作为《联合国海洋法公约》缔约国,有义务保护海洋环境。然而,在核污水排海方案的正当性、核污水数据的可靠性、净化装置的有效性、环境影响的不确定性等问题上,日本未能作出科学、可信的说明。
国际原子能机构技术工作组虽已三次赴日实地考察评估,但尚未就日排海方案的安全性给出结论,并且对日本提出诸多澄清要求和整改意见。在此情况下,日本仍执意推进核污水排海工程建设,这是极不负责任的行为。
太平洋不是日本的下水道,日本必须正视各方合理关切,在与周边国家等相关利益方和国际原子能机构充分协商后,制定合理的核污水处理方案。日本也要着眼长远,若只顾眼前,执意将核污水排放入海,不仅其自身,周边国家乃至全世界都将为之买单,其后果必将会危害数代人。
Fukushima water disposal by no means Japan’s own business
By John Lee
(ECNS) -- Japan has announced it will release treated wastewater from the wrecked Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean this year.
Although Fukushima wastewater disposal affects global marine ecological environment protection and public health, Japan has turned a deaf ear to domestic and international opposition to dumping the contaminated water into the sea, treating the "global" matter as its own business.
The Fukushima accident in 2011 had sent large quantities of radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean, causing irreversible damage to the surrounding environment, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to evacuate the area. South Korea still maintains its import ban on Japanese seafood from areas affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
On April 13, 2021, Japan announced it had decided to discharge contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea due to dwindling storage space, with the Japanese government and plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. promoting the release plan over the past year.
The Japanese government argues that the water treated by an advanced liquid processing system, or ALPS, is safe and drinkable, which is undoubtedly fooling the public.
In fact, the treated wastewater still includes a variety of radioactive substances and can’t be recycled once discharged into the sea, which will pose a great threat to marine ecology and ultimately endanger human health in the long run.
Therefore, the discharge plan has been strongly opposed in Japan. According to a questionnaire conducted by The Asahi Shimbun, nearly 60 percent of mayors of 42 municipalities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures oppose the discharge plan. The National Fisheries Cooperative Federation of Japan has also repeatedly stated its opposition in public.
The Japanese government believes that dumping Fukushima wastewater into the sea is the cheapest and most convenient solution, but neighboring countries and even the whole world will be at risk of nuclear pollution.
The Pacific Ocean doesn’t belong to Japan and the wastewater flow along oceanic currents will surely break boundaries and endanger public welfare and the interests of neighboring countries and even the international community.
The Korea Economic Daily reported that related research concluded that if contaminated water from Fukushima is released into the ocean, it would only take seven months for the contaminated water to reach the shores of Jeju Island, with the country's aquaculture and tourism suffering considerable losses.
According to the calculation of a German marine scientific research institute, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean within half a year from the date of discharge, and the U.S. and Canada will be affected by nuclear pollution. People in the Pacific region also oppose the discharge plan.
As a participant of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Japan has the obligation of protecting the marine environment.
However, it hasn’t offered a full and convincing explanation on issues like the legitimacy of the discharge plan, the reliability of data on the nuclear-contaminated water, the efficacy of the treatment system or the uncertainty of environmental impact.
Though the IAEA has yet to complete a comprehensive review after three investigations in Japan, the Japanese side has been pushing through the approval process for its discharge plan and even started building facilities for the discharge. It is rather irresponsible for Japan to act against public opinion at home and concerns abroad.
The Pacific Ocean is not a private Japanese sewer. The country must seriously heed the voices of the international community and make a reasonable plan for the Fukushima wastewater disposal after full consultation with stakeholders and international agencies.
If it only seeks instant interest and insists on discharging the contaminated water into the sea, not only itself, but also its neighboring countries and the entire world will pay for the decision and several generations will be forced to bear the consequence.
