日本承諾對核危機完全透明

Japan says its prime minister has promised to provide the world with "maximum transparency" about the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power plant. Prime Minister Naoto Kan spoke during a telephone call with Chinese President Hu Jintao Wednesday.

Japan's foreign ministry said he also offered his heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Hu for the support and assistance Japan has received from China during the crisis. It said Mr. Hu expressed confidence that Japan will overcome the situation, and asked that Tokyo continue to provide all necessary information.

Both China and South Korea expressed concern this month after Japan began pumping radioactive water from the Fukushima plant into the ocean without first notifying its neighbors. Japan later apologized.

日本表示，日本首相菅直人承諾以“最大的透明度”向全世界通報福島核電站的事故情況。菅直人星期三在與中國國家主席胡錦濤的電話談話中發表了這一評論。

日本外務省表示，菅直人還對中國在危機期間向日本提供支持和援助向胡錦濤表達了衷心的感謝。日本外務省說，胡錦濤表示相信日本能夠克服這一困難，並要東京繼續提供所有必要信息。

日本在沒有通知鄰國的情況下開始將福島核電站的輻射水倒入海中後，中國和韓國在這個月表達了對此事的擔憂。日本後來對此表示歉意。
