Rahm Emanuel, the US ambassador to Japan, posts four pictures on social media that he says are Chinese vessels 'fishing for the same fish embargoed by China'
TOKYO, Japan – Rahm Emanuel, the US ambassador to Japan, took fresh aim at China on Friday, September 22, over coercing its neighbors, posted pictures of Chinese boats he said were fishing near Japan despite a seafood ban and noted China’s defense minister was still missing.
The latest manifestation of that, he added, was China’s decision to ban all seafood from Japan after it started releasing treated radioactive water from the wrecked Fukushima nuclear power plant into the Pacific Ocean last month. Responding to Emanuel’s remarks on Fukushima, China’s foreign ministry said the ambassador should stop favoring Japan’s “irresponsible” behaviour.
Li, who has not been seen in public for more than three weeks, has been placed under investigation by Chinese authorities, Reuters reported last week, citing 10 sources.
