UN’s nuclear watchdog IAEA chief Rafael Grossi hints at disagreement among Fukushima report experts

The head of the UN’s nuclear watchdog said on Friday that one or two of the team of international experts behind its report greenlighting Japan’s release of treated radioactive water from the crippled Fukushima plant may have expressed concerns.

Asked whether there was any disagreement among the experts behind the report, which included participants from 11 countries including China, the fiercest critic of Japan’s plan, Rafael Grossi told Reuters he had heard such reports.

“I heard that being said … but again, what we have published is scientifically impeccable,” Rafael said in an interview.
