Japan and China agree on steps to resume fish imports

Investing.com -- The governments of Japan and China have agreed on a process that could lead to the resumption of fishery product imports from Japan. The agreement brings China a step closer to lifting a ban that was put in place in 2023 due to concerns over the discharge of treated wastewater from the disaster-stricken Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

On Wednesday, leaders from relevant ministries and agencies from both countries met in Beijing to confirm the safety certification measures needed to restart imports. This information was disclosed by a source from the Japanese ruling party on Thursday. The agreement outlines the procedures that must be followed to ensure the safety of the fishery products before they can be imported into China.
