The president of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) of the United States, Gregory Jaczko, warned that the levels of radiation in a nuclear plant in Japan are "extremely high." In testimony before Congress, the specialist said that the current situation could impact the ability to take "corrective action" by the Japanese authorities.
The expert explained that he consumed all the water poured into the fuel tank of the reactor four in the Fukushima nuclear plant, which the fuel is exposed and generates radiation. The U.S. embassy in Tokyo shortly before recommended, based on the opinions of experts from the NRC, that the Americans evacuate a radius of about 80 kilometers from the Fukushima plant.
Jaczko said that precautionary measures are taken so that people are not exposed to radiation. The new recommendations show the differences between Washington and Tokyo, as U.S. experts concluded that the Japanese warnings are inadequate, according to the newspaper "The New York Times on its Web site.
Toner said that this is not to judge what the Japanese government advises its citizens, but what the United States recommended in these situations. For its part, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said the nuclear issue in Japan "it is serious but not out of control" "The situation has evolved and is very serious," described the IAEA director general, Yukiya Amano, who confirmed that they are now three reactors whose cores have been damaged, but always without reference to whether the situation has worsened since Tuesday.
The Japanese authorities increased to four thousand 134 dead and 606 missing eight thousand of the earthquake and tsunami of last Friday. At this, the Emperor Akihito expressed his condolences to the victims of his country and urged the Japanese not surrender. Born in 1933 and is the fifth child and eldest of the men of the Emperor Hirohito and Empress Nagako.
He was separated from his parents at age three and raised him private tutors. He studied from 1940 to 1952 at the Gakushuin School in Tokyo. He won the title of prince in the Imperial Palace on November 10, 1951 and acceded to the throne on January 7, 1989, after the death of Emperor Hirohito, his father, officially becoming the 125th emperor of Japan, 12 November 1990.
The emperor is merely ceremonial by the restrictions imposed by the Constitution of Japan. The sovereign carried out most of the functions of a head of state, but has no discretionary powers. Only when he announced his country's defeat in World War II the Japanese realized that it was fictional.
Since that time, the emperor had never led the nation through a tragedy (at that time was his father who spoke to the nation in 1945). The emperor has only led the nation twice since he officially took the throne in 1990: in June 2005 when it honored the victims of World War II and now to talk about the earthquake and tsunami that caused the tragedy Japan.
In 2009 he reappeared publicly but only to greet the nation from the Imperial Palace balcony after a relapse he had cardiac problems. Health Secretary Jose Angel Cordova Villalobos, said that although Mexico is still on alert has implemented a program-check with the Federal Commission for Protection Against Health Risks (Cofepris) - of products from Asia, especially Japan, such as fish, vegetables, meat and milk, to prevent radioactive contamination.
Review also pointed out that people from that region, especially those who might be exposed within a radius of 10 kilometers from the Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan. Cordova said: "So far we are not in an alert in Mexico", but warned the situation could change because every day there is new information and if there was a more complicated situation will have to change strategies.
The Red Cross is appealing for money from the account. For the time will not be installed collection centers for donations in kind by the high cost would represent the movement of goods to the affected areas in Japan. Beware of websites that provide mechanisms for donations. Security agencies warn that could result in fraudulent campaigns.
The Mexican Red Cross is the only institution authorized by the Embassy of Japan to manage aid to daminificados by the earthquake and subsequent tsunami that killed thousands in China.
